Le résumé fourni par la source
The biodiversity community has already done impressive work registering vast numbers of sample records in large reference data repositories such as the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and BioSamples. Yet the metadata attached to these records is too often incomplete: essential fields are left blank, filled with placeholders like ‘missing’, or the information is simply never captured in the first place. These gaps are exactly what make otherwise valuable records hard to find, trust, and reuse. As part of the BioDiv-FC project which extends the open-source FAIR-Checker tool with domain-aware, community-defined FAIR metrics for biodiversity data this deliverable reports a profile-based method to quantify the metadata completeness of ENA/BioSamples records against a community checklist. We take the ENA Tree of Life checklist (ERC000053, "ENA53"), express it as a machine-actionable profile partitioned into mandatory, recommended and optional elements, and compile that profile into a generic Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) shape. Each sample is harvested as schema.org Resource Description Framework (RDF) and validated against the shape, yielding results at two complementary levels: (i) a single weighted completeness score (0–100 %) that summarises the record at a glance, and (ii) a detailed report listing precisely which mandatory, recommended, and optional properties are missing. The score supports monitoring metadata quality across large sample collections, while the detailed report turns each evaluation into an actionable recommendation for progressively improving a record's metadata completeness. The approach is checklist-agnostic: it is by no means limited to the ENA checklists but applies to any other community profile, since retargeting the evaluation only requires swapping the three element lists.
