Abstract
In this webinar, Dr. Amir Aryani (ANDS) gives a brief presentation on this collaborative project, and answer the question: "how can universities discover their datasets or connections to works by their researchers without manually searching in Google?" What is the Research Data Switchboard? This webinar describes Research Data Switchboard (RD-Switchboard) which addresses the problem of cross platform discovery by operating online services that connect datasets across multiple registries. RD-Switchboard is a collaborative project by ANDS and number of other international partners in the Research Data Alliance Driven by the rapid development of data storage technology, the number of research data repositories is growing fast and researchers more than ever have access to a range of data repositories including university data storage, discipline specific repositories and national (regional) level data infrastructures. The problem is that these infrastructures are often operating in silos; that is, they cannot connect their datasets to the related research or datasets in other platforms.
