Building so+ware to support the research community’s data cura7on and preserva7on needs G. Sayeed Choudhury, Hanh Vu, Elliot Metsger, Aaron Birkland dataconservancy.org The Data Conservancy (DC) was launched through a grant from the Na:onal Science Founda:on’s DataNet program, which built upon prior experience with managing data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The grant provided the DC team an opportunity to broaden its data infrastructure development and gain beEer understanding of the challenges in collec:ng, preserving and cura:ng different types of research data. Since the DataNet funding, the Data Conservancy has redesigned and refactored its core infrastructure to leverage exis:ng soGware and technologies and to build deeper connec:ons with both research and technology communi:es. Most notably, we have embraced approach of data representa:on by the Linked Data PlaKorm (LDP) by building our data archive with the Fedora 4 repository plaKorm and leading the development of the RMap Services with funding from the Sloan Founda:on.
