DART Work Packages & Outcomes

The DART project is structured as a number of inter-related thematically-grouped sets of work packages. General descriptions of all of the DART workpackages are available in the DART proposal.

DART Workpackages

Research within the following workpackages is led by UQ-based researchers:

Collect Data

DMQ4: Online instruments -
Provide online, remote access to pilot working instruments/sensors

SI1: Distributed data management -
Facilitate distributed data management using Fedora

SI3: Semantic search engine for SRB -
Support richer descriptive and preservation metadata for dataset objects to enable more effective discovery

CR2: Creative Commons -
Reduce barriers to content acquisition by providing more rights-assignment options for non-science researchers

CR3: Science Commons -
Reduce barriers to content acquisition by providing more rights options for science researchers

AA1: Individual Annotations -
Allow researchers to annotate each other's works (including datasets)

AA2: Secure Annotations -
Improve rates of annotation by allowing end-user control over who can annotate what and who can access the annotations

AA3: Collaborative Annotations -
Help collaborative annotation services contribute to the life and productivity of research communities

DA3: Metadata Schema Registry -
Reduce wasted effort in creating metadata schemas and improve interoperability of metadata schemas

Climatology Demonstrator - Applying DART research to the Climatology domain
