The BonaRes metadata schema for geospatial soil-agricultural research data – Merging INSPIRE and DataCite metadata schemes

Reports & Research
Junio, 2019
Global

A spatial data infrastructure (SDI) for the upload and provision of soil-agricultural research data in Germany was developed and launched in 2017. The precondition for the new SDI were to be compliant with the European initiative for spatial information (INSPIRE), to consider FAIR data principles, to be interoperable with other disciplinary national and international SDIs and to support dataset registrations with digital object identifiers (DOI). To meet these requirements, the new SDI had to support both the INSPIRE and DataCite metadata standards.

Grey areas in green grabbing : subtle and indirect interconnections between climate change politics and land grabs and their implications for research

Peer-reviewed publication
Marzo, 2019
Cambodia
Myanmar

Climate change and green grabbing/resource grabbing together call for nuanced understanding of governance imperatives, and for constructing a knowledge base appropriate to political intervention. This paper offers preliminary ways in which interconnections can be seen and understood, and their implications for research and politics explored. It concludes by way of a preliminary discussion of the notion of ‘agrarian climate justice’ as a possible framework for formal governance or political activism relevant to tackling grey area interconnections.
