What is Data Portability?
Data portability is the ability for people to reuse their data across interoperable applications.
- http://dataportability.org/
Do you have an application at your institution where the content is tied to the technology?
“Never create something you can’t reuse” - @rjstein

Enough about specifications already…
What is TAP?
Goals of the TAP & TourML Project
1. Create open-source tools that can be used in full or in pieces to support the creation of mobile experiences in museums
2. Build community support and adoption of the TourML metadata specification as a means of representing the content of mobile museum experiences
3. Successfully use these tools and methods to launch and document mobile experiences in each of the partner museums
• 2 year IMLS National Leadership Grant• A collaboration of Museums, Vendors, and Content Experts
