shows the relationship between records. FAIRsharing has the ability to store and display the relationships between resources, a key feature in understanding the landscape of standards, databases and policies around a particular resource. This information places a resource in context – which standards does a database implement, how is it interoperable with other resources? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can access more details of these relationships within the \u201cRelated Content\u201d section of the record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
