Do you remember our Data Steward interview series? Two interesting interviews with insights into the job as a data steward appeared on the RDM blog back then. After a somewhat longer absence, we are now celebrating a new edition of the series and would like to immerse you again in the work of the data stewards at RWTH Aachen University, some of whom have recently joined us.

In May, the “FAIR Data Spaces” project celebrated its first anniversary. The project application was submitted to the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) at the beginning of April last year. The funding already started on May 17, 2021. Since then, the FAIR Data Spaces community has been built up and the first milestones have been reached together. In this blog post, we take a look at what has happened in the last year.

Recently, the IT Center Blog team reported on the large-scale project “The Archive Migration” – What has happened so far” of the IT Center and RWTH Aachen University. By 30 June 2022, the archive migration should be completed and all classified archive nodes transferred to Coscine and the DigitalArchive. Archiving research data has already been possible with Coscine since last year. In this article, we address some queries from researchers and explain the background to why you should archive your research data with Coscine.

Since November 2021, the Chair of Architectural History at RWTH Aachen University, together with TU Berlin and FIZ Karlsruhe, has been developing a research data portal for building archaeology under the title baureka.online. But what exactly is baureka.online? What are the goals of this project and for which community is it intended? We would like to answer these and many other questions in this blog post.

The funding of NFDI Basic services is a highly topical and exciting subject. Just a few weeks ago, we reported on the schedule and the resulting reactions from the scientific community. This blog post will now focus on the third round of calls for proposals.
NFDI Basic Services: Schedule and Reactions

On our blog, we have already reported on the decoupling of NFDI Basic Services from the third round of calls for proposals. In the blog post NFDI-Basisdienste – Ein Überblick über die Entstehung und den weiteren Verlauf der Querschnittskonsortien (NFDI Basis Services – An overview of the emergence and further development of the cross-sectional consortia), the beginnings of the Basic Services were highlighted, the statement of the DFG was summarized, and a small outlook into the near future was given.
Contrary to what was assumed at the time, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has already published the schedule for the decision-making process for basic services funding in December 2021 and this has already caused some reactions from the scientific community. In this blog post we would like to inform you about it.

In this article, we would like to inform you about the recently published Funding Atlas of the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the key figures on publicly funded research in Germany. Published only every three years, this report is considered and serves as a “long-term observation of the German research landscape.” In this latest edition, the most recent decisions in the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) program also receive accentuated consideration, and with it the role of RWTH Aachen University.
2021 – Wir blicken auf die FDM-Höhepunkte des Jahres zurück

Die Getränke sind kaltgestellt und das Jahr 2021 neigt sich dem Ende zu – allerhöchste Zeit für den Jahresrückblick und die diesjährigen Höhepunkte im Bereich des Forschungsdatenmanagements.
2021 hat erneut gezeigt, dass das FDM von Jahr zu Jahr mehr Fahrt aufnimmt und sich dabei auch nicht von einer anhaltenden Pandemie bremsen lässt. Ganz im Gegenteil: Das digitale FDM-Angebot hat dadurch einen Aufschwung erlebt.
