London Datasets, Issues and Solutions

Skip to end of metadata
Go to start of metadata
The pages below form a network of Datsets, preservation Issues with those Datasets, and Solutions to those Issues. Triples composed of a Dataset, Issue and a Solution describe an end to end digital preservation challenge. The results were generated by attendees at the the SPRUCE London Mashup.

This format was developed to capture the results of Mashup events that were held as part of the AQuA Project and has subsequently been developed and used within the SCAPE Project further hackathon events and the SPRUCE Project.
