Annotated Research Context
Your research put into context.
Connect your research data with the context that identifies it, explains how it was produced, and makes its meaning clear. ARC supports your work as it evolves and connects it to publication and reuse.
Workspace
Data and metadata evolve together. Shape your workspace around your domain’s tools, formats, and working practices.
ARC Workspace
- Research data Measurements, files, and research outputs
- Administrative Metadata Identity, contributors, and rights
- Provenance Metadata Processes, inputs, and outputs
- Semantic Metadata Meaning, units, and vocabulary
Publication space
Research context is packaged for reuse. ARC RO-Crate provides a common publication layer that supports domain-specific descriptions.
ARC RO-Crate
- Research data Files and research outputs for sharing
- Administrative Core Profile Identity, contributors, and rights
- Provenance Core Profile Processes, inputs, and outputs
- Semantic Core Profile Meaning, units, and vocabulary
