Several professional organizations have become increasingly concerned about the loss of reusable data from primary sources such as individual researchers, projects, and agencies.
DataAtRisk.org aims to connect people with data in need, to data expertise, and is a response to the clear need for a community building application. This “Data at Risk” commons will allow individuals to submit and request help with threatened datasets and connect these datasets to experts who can provide resources and skills to help rescue data through a secure, professional mechanism to facilitate self-identification and discovery.
This session will provide an overview of the current status of the
DataAtRisk.org project, and aims to expand the network of individuals involved in the development and implementation of
DataAtRisk.orgHow to Prepare for this Session: Please check out
