Characteristics of the RDR
Its main features are:
- Managed with Dataverse: open source software for sharing, preserving, citing, discovering, and analyzing research data
- Uses persistent identifiers (DOI) assigned via DataCite
- Customization: allows you to manage the space of each research group.
- You can connect to each author's ORCID identifier
- It supports files up to 10 GB by default, easily expandable to larger files
- It offers medium-high preservation performance
- It uses open metadata based on Data Documentation Initiative (DDI) and Dublin Core (DC). They can be found by search engines and it has numerous integrated schemes of general use in the different subject areas, encouraging the exchange of information in other schemes and also allowing the use of controlled vocabularies.
