The FAIR principles for scientific data an … The FAIR principles for scientific data and software have not yet been extended to scientific modeling. However, making models findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable is urgently needed to make the modeling of social and natural systems and beyond more coherent and efficient. The Open Modeling Foundation (OMF) is a recently formed alliance of modeling organisations that coordinates and administers a common, community developed body of standards and best practices among diverse communities of modeling scientists. Several working groups cover all relevant aspects of standards development and adoption. First results in 2025 will be (1) an ontology for modeling standards that refines the FAIR principles for modeling, in particular interoperability, and links these principles to existing standards, (2) a tiered fit-for-purpose approach that makes the effort required to follow good practices proportional to the expected real-world impact of a model, (3) a general, unifying language for documenting models that is based on the ODD protocol from agent-based modeling, follows the tiered approach, and supports the I and R principles of FAIR. I will describe who we are, how we work and what OMF’s main challenges are at the moment. OMF's working groups are open to anyone interested in meeting new colleagues, learning to ask new questions, and helping to produce much-needed articles.d helping to produce much-needed articles. +
