Abstract
We present an interoperable hierarchical data representation for battery tests, leading to improved scalability of data transmission and enhanced data accessibility and comprehensibility for both human interpretation and machine processing. The hierarchical data format includes the raw trace electrical measurement data, the metrological calibration and uncertainty data, the metadata such as experimental settings, instruments and software versions, as well as post‐processed data such as electrochemical model fit parameters. This data representation allows repetition of the battery test under the exact same conditions such that identical results are achieved within defined error bounds. This is in line with the general F. A. I. R. data approach and provides repeatability and traceability in the battery value chain. As an application of the hierarchical data representation, we show the classification of cells as pass/fail being performed with quantitative confidence levels. We demonstrate the complete workflow of establishing the hierarchical data structure for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), starting from metrological traceability of the calibration and uncertainty analysis towards the storage of the structured data as a single integrated file that preserves the hierarchical data format. The structured data file is provided in JSON format in the Zenodo repository, as well as the program scripts to generate and read the JSON EIS files.
