Research Data Unipd supports research produced by members of the University of Padua. The service aims to facilitate data discovery, data sharing, and reuse as required by funding institutions (e.g. European Commission).
According to the University of Padua Policy on the Management of Research Data, data must be stored in a correct, complete and reliable way, respecting their integrity. They must also be accessible, identifiable, traceable, interoperable and, where possible, available for subsequent use as stated in the FAIR principles.
Datasets published in the Archive have a set of metadata that ensure that data are described and discoverable. Before publication, dataset records are checked by Editors for the presence of appropriate metadata.
All published metadata are released under a CC0 licence.
We encourage researchers to use licences on their datasets to promote the reuse of the research data.
The licence to be preferred is Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, but several others are used.
Any re-use must properly acknowledge the Creators, ideally through a citation similar to that provided with the record.
