X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) research has expanded to become a set of widely used scientific methods with applications across Physics, Chemistry, Surface Science, Nanoscale Science, Biology, and Environmental and Earth Sciences. Over time, various scientific communities, research facilities, device providers, and software developers have created different formats and applications to store XAS data and describe it with metadata. These custom data formats are very often developed ad-hoc they serve their immediate needs and they are integrated with local workflows but they are not easily integrated or interoperable outside their immediate usage. While some standards such as XAFS Data Interchange (XDI) format and NeXus HDF5 format have been developed, add-hoc formats are a widely implemented and practical interoperability across the full range of systems has yet to be realized. This project looks at using the WorldFAIR Cross-Domain Interoperability Framework (CDIF), in combination with existing domain standards and ontologies, to show that real interoperability can be achieved. CDIF utilizes common cross-domain standards such as Schema.org, SKOS, and DDI-CDI to support FAIR exchange of data. The project includes drafting the CDIF profile and mappings from existing standards, and implementation of CDIF tools and workflows inside the EOSC Galaxy infrastructure, including the use of generative AI to enhance metadata capture. This presentation will present the profile and mappings and discuss how this approach may be applied to other use cases. We will also discuss and demo the implementation in Galaxy and the wider applicability of these solutions.
