Slides describing the evolution of the Edinburgh DataShare repository and The High-Rise Project and the (potential) collaborative mechanisms that will enable the digital content to be ingested and preserved in the Edinburgh DataShare DSpace repository environment

Reliable access to researchers’ own data Suitable environment to adhere to funders’ mandate Metadata increases exposure of individual’s research within the research community Preservation responsibility of institution rather than individual

In house simple system that will allow us to catalogue the material, add description and prepare for data migration / ingesting into the AHDS system
Developed an in-house closed system
Show collections, metadata. Grops dubln core classification
Original project was to ingest assets in AHDS system. This option was closed. We started looking for options and further advice.
In particular we looked into the DCC. Collaboration. Repositories meeting York DCC workshop Add Angus report front page
Then we ended up coinciding in a workshop at the DCC Similar problems. In a sense data is just bytes of information . But for the researcher the data ‘means’ something else. What do you do with the Data. It is clear that the curation process has to be embeded in the workflowsat since planning.
So we went to meet the DataShare Team LOOKING FOR advice and we ended up putting together a proposal that we managed to submit on time ! Just check the 4pm deadline Digital Equipment and Database Enhancement for Impact AHRC call Target audience academic researchers and teachers, also repository developers, public archives, seconday teaching professionals, policy professionals and urban designers, in areas of housing, heritage and sustainable cities
We we think our data will finally have a more comfortable home with a sustainable lifespan. Regardless of if the grant application is successful , we will follow this route of collaboration and most likely extend it as a practice embedded in the research workflows in other projeects. And now Stuart will give you some background on how the repository came about and how it fits in with the DCC Curation Lifecycle we envision implementing..
