NAKALA, a tool to expose research data
NAKALA is a Huma-Num interoperable and secure service which enables research teams to deposit all types of documented digital data (text files, sounds, images, videos, 3D objects, etc.) in a secure repository in order to share them. NAKALA is an interoperable and secure service for depositing all types of data (e.g. text files, audio, video, images or other types) in order to share them. This repository mainly provides these services:
- assigning a PID (Persistent IDentifier) making data and metadata citable;
- permanent data access;
- dissemination of metadata through a Triple Store and OAI-PMH;
- dedicated search engine;
- customized presentation with NAKALA Press.
The SSH Open Marketplace is maintained and will be further developed by three European Research Infrastructures - DARIAH, CLARIN and CESSDA - and their national partners. It was developed as part of the "Social Sciences and Humanities Open Cloud" SSHOC project, European Union's Horizon 2020 project call H2020-INFRAEOSC-04-2018, grant agreement #823782.
