FAIRsharing record for: RADAR

This FAIRsharing record describes: RADAR offers publicly funded research institutions and universities in Germany an infrastructure for the publication and archiving of digital research data independent of discipline and format. The administration of the institutional RADAR environment, the individual workflows for uploading, organising and annotating the research data with metadata as well as the curation of the datasets and optional quality assurance through peer review are the responsibility of the using institution. RADAR is developed by FIZ Karlsruhe - Leibniz Institute for Information Infrastructure and is operated exclusively on servers in Germany. Three RADAR variants are available to best meet institutional needs, technical resources and the desired level of integration. The use of RADAR Cloud does not require any technical infrastructure at the using institutions; archived and published research data are stored in three copies at two locations. In the RADAR Hybrid and RADAR Local variants, own IT resources can be integrated. All RADAR contracts are subject to German law.
