Because good research needs good data

Sustainability Issues for Australian Research Data Report Now Available

Joy Davidson | 18 October 2006

APSR have announced the completion of their Australian e-Research Sustainability Survey Project with the publication of a report. This project was undertaken by Paul McNamara of APSR and Dr Markus Buchhorn of APAC who had been asked to survey the sustainability issues for data-intensive research projects, including the capabilities and demands of research groups and institutions for the storage, access and long-term management of research data. The report includes suggestions how this issue might be addressed, and your feedback on these would be appreciated. Send your thoughts to enquiries@apsr.edu.au.
