#  OBSERVE toolkit

**Data set reference and name**

OBSERVE toolkit with the deck of cards and manual - Deliverable 4.3.

##  Data set description

The ca 100 cards contain text and images. Each card provides basic information
on one emerging issue identified in OBSERVE.

Underlying data are captured in report D1.2 and 1.3 and their annexes (see
section 2). The cards are explicitly targeted to the widest possible range of
potential users from policy, industry and society wishing to engage in
reflection and dialogue on emerging topics. Accordingly, it should be freely
accessible for everybody and distributed, used and reused as much as possible.

##  Standards and metadata

A limited number of cards will be physically printed on carton. The deck will
also be available in .pdf format for download and printing. Metadata describe
structural data of the files.

##  Data sharing

The printed cards will be distributed to the FET unit and key users (e.g. FET
advisory board participants in sense making workshops). For wider
dissemination they will be provided for download on the OBSERVE and Fraunhofer
ISI Website in .pdf format.

In parallel they will be published using the green road of open access through
the Fraunhofer Institutional open access repository (Fraunhofer eprint). The
Fraunhofer eprint system captures and preserves all necessary metadata to
ensure accessability by search engines and library systems. It is connected to
the OpenAire Open Access Infrastructure so the publications will be
automatically findable and accessible worldwide.

More detailed information on underlying research will be provided through
reports 1.2 and 1.3 (see section 2).

##  Archiving and preservation (including storage and backup)

Fraunhofer eprints automatically assigns a permanently unchangeable Internet
address for long-term archiving.
