Abstract

About Research data are the foundation of responsible science, innovation, and informed societal action. The Northwest region of Germany has established a strong research data space, which is presented here. The presentation’s goal is to provide an accessible overview of regional research data initiatives and to facilitate cross-location networking. Together, these data initiatives create reliable structures for sustainable research data management, secure data access, and cross-institutional collaboration in accordance with the FAIR principles. The Northwest Data Space is continuously developed through a collaborative process involving all participating initiatives. This project is coordinated by the lead project “Research Data Management and Data Science” of the U Bremen Research Alliance within the DataNord data competence center. Explore the interactive Northwest Data Space The Northwest Data Space is a two-part interactive graphical overview: one figure shows the regional cooperation network of the Northwest data initiatives (pictured in preview), the other figure offers a short description of each initiative and links with further information.
