PLANETS & Document Interoperability
Preservation and Long-term access to Digital Content through migration and interoperability
Perspectives: Digital Preservation
Effective strategies for preservation of digital content are of paramount importanceThis applies to both ‘born digital’ and digitized content, across domains and scientific disciplines
Unless we use adequate technologies and best practices to ensure that the past digital content is compatible with new information environments, we will loose access to the material created in the digital era.
PRESERVATION
Estimated value of digital documents that are produced in the EU and in danger of obsolescence is in excess of $6billion per year.
Perspectives: Data Lifecycle
Scientists manage large collections of digital data within complex and multifunctional systems
Systems are designed to support the full data lifecycle:Production, ingestion, storage, curation, publishing, and consumption.
Systems evolve with usage.
There is a continuous migrating of data formats and services to ensure wide usability and interoperability
