Scientific data is the raw material of research and can prove very valuable for current research long after it was originally generated. Once established, long-term storage and easy access to data avoids unnecessary duplication while at the same time potentially increasing the quality and reliability of future research (e.g. comparative studies, time series analyses).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to the careful archiving and provision of older data, sufficient storage capacity has to be maintained so as to avoid losing data if not erasing it entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2019, Germany\u2019s federal and state governments launched a special funding programme for the development and promotion of a National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) that aims to systematically manage the data holdings maintained by academia and research, which are currently decentralised, project-based and temporary in many instances. As a digital, regionally distributed and networked repository of knowledge, the NFDI aims to sustainably secure research data and enable it to be harnessed for further use.<\/p>\n\n\n
