R1.2
FAIR Guiding Sub-Principle R1.2:
(meta)data are associated with detailed provenance
Interpretation of R1.2
Detailed provenance includes facets such as how the resource was generated, why it was generated, by whom, under what conditions, using what starting-data or source-resource, using what funding/resources, who owns the data, who should be given credit, and any filters or cleansing processes that have been applied post-generation. Provenance information helps people and machines assess whether a resource meets their criteria for their intended reuse, and what data manipulation procedures may be necessary in order to reuse it appropriately.​
FAIR Implementation Profile
In the FAIR Implementation Profile (FIP) approach, Principle R1.2 is addressed through the Provenance Model [A]. A specification that specifies metadata describing the origin and lineage of data or other digital objects.
This interpretation of R1.2 is based on 'FAIR Principles: Interpretations and Implementation Considerations'. Jacobsen et al, Data Intelligence 2020; 2 (1-2): 10–29. doi: https://doi.org/10.1162/dint_r_00024
