We develop software to support the FAIR principles in the field of condensed-matter physics, the chemical physics of solids and materials science in general. FAIR refers to a set of guiding principles to make data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. The FAIRmat consortium is part of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) and is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation | project 460197019).

A collection of repositories that are part of the FAIRmat consortium.
This is the main software that powers the infrastructure and our central deployment. It's a platform for sharing, storing, and analyzing materials data. You can install your own NOMAD Oasis 🌴 and customize it to meet your needs, including features to define your ELNs, custom schemas, parsers, and cloud-based analysis tools (NORTH).
| Repository | Description | Docs | Publications |
|---|---|---|---|
| nomad | The main NOMAD repository. | 📚 | 📰 |
These are template repositories that you can use as a base when cusomizing your own NOMAD installation for what you need in your institute or lab.
