    The RADAR Project - A Service for Research Data Archival and Publication
    (Basel : MDPI, 2016) Kraft, Angelina; Razum, Matthias; Potthoff, Jan; Porzel, Andrea; Engel, Thomas; Lange, Frank; van den Broek, Karina; Furtado, Filipe
    The aim of the RADAR (Research Data Repository) project is to set up and establish an infrastructure that facilitates research data management: the infrastructure will allow researchers to store, manage, annotate, cite, curate, search and find scientific data in a digital platform available at any time that can be used by multiple (specialized) disciplines. While appropriate and innovative preservation strategies and systems are in place for the big data communities (e.g., environmental sciences, space, and climate), the stewardship for many other disciplines, often called the “long tail research domains”, is uncertain. Funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), the RADAR collaboration project develops a service oriented infrastructure for the preservation, publication and traceability of (independent) research data. The key aspect of RADAR is the implementation of a two-stage business model for data preservation and publication: clients may preserve research results for up to 15 years and assign well-graded access rights, or to publish data with a DOI assignment for an unlimited period of time. Potential clients include libraries, research institutions, publishers and open platforms that desire an adaptable digital infrastructure to archive and publish data according to their institutional requirements and workflows.

    Acquisition of audiovisual Scientific Technical Information from OSGeo by TIB Hannover: A work in progress report
    (Delaware : Open Source Geospatial Foundation, 2015) Löwe, Peter; Plank, Margret; Marín-Arraiza, Paloma
    This paper gives a work in progress report on the application of the TIB|AV Portal for audiovisual OSGeo content. The portal is a web-based platform for audiovisual media combining state-of-the art multimedia analysis with semantic based analysis, and retrieval. It meets the requirements by special libraries for reliable long term preservation, scientific citation via persistent identifiers, and applies metadata enhancement to enable innovative services for search and retrieval.
