Hi All. Natural Resources Canada within the GeoConnections Program has been advocating to further develop the F (findability) and A (Accessibility) aspects of FAIR with the use of the +, i.e., FAIR+ . For findability, we are advancing work towards automating the discovery of spatial web services via crawlers. We crawl the .ca domain and list the results of available spatial services here: https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/science-and-data/science-and-research/geomatics/canadas-spatial-data-infrastructure/geospatial-web-services/19359 ... The same is being done for Arctic Spatial Data Infrastructure in their metadata catalog available here: https://arctic-sdi.org/arctic-sdi-metadata-catalogue/ . We are also pursuing improving accessibility through web mapping and Maps for HTML https://www.w3.org/community/maps4html/ Work is focused on improving accessibility to those with disabilities via screen map readers and map layer readers. Interoperable is a pillar of our work as well and is well established with our use, promotion, and support for the development of standards. -- GitHub Notification of comment by wilkesg Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/sdw/issues/1290#issuecomment-1010269076 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
