Future Access to the Scientific and Cultural Heritage – A shared Responsibility
Birte Christensen-DalsgaardState and University Library
WESS-ALA June 30 2008
Outline of talk
• Staging the challenges data and their representation
• Preservation focus• EU Projects:
• Planets, CASPAR and DPE
• National initiatives • Alliance for permanent access to
scientific information
• Summary
Data – From Bits to Interpretation
Level 2 GOME Satellite instrument data
From CASPAR
New Media
• We establish collections to give future generations access to cultural heritage – but how will they access and use it?
• The answer will influence preservation strategies and quality measures
Information is the important thing
• What information?– Documents……– Data…….
• Original bits?• Look and feel?• Behaviour?• Performance?• Explicit/ Implicit
Information:
Any type of knowledge that can be exchanged. In an exchange, it is represented by data.
Long Term is long enough to be concerned with the impacts of changing technologies, including support for new media and data formats, or with a changing user community. Long Term may extend indefinitely.
Ensure that the information to be preserved is Independently Understandable to (and usable by) the Designated Community.
CASPAR and Planets
• CASPAR – focus on developing framework and methodology for capturing relevant information as part of the process
• Planets – focus on creating framework and methodology for common, existing objects
