Share and publish research data
PLATFORMS AND SERVICES WHERE YOU AS A RESEARCHER CAN MAKE RESEARCH DATA AVAILABLE
There are many repositories or services where researchers can publish or share research data, both general and subject specific repositories.
Can I always make research data available?
There may be restrictions for research data to be publicly shared, such as commercial, ethical or legal reasons. For more information see the resources listed on the page “Legal aspects and funder requirements” or contact the university experts on legal or ethical matters.
Even if research data may not be publicly shared, it is possible to publish a description of the research data in order to make it visible for search.
