Project

Research projects are at the heart of Coscine. Each project forms a unit to which other participants can be invited in accordance with the rights and roles concept.

Resources

So-called resources can be created within a project. Some resource types (Web, S3, and WORM) offer storage space so that both research data and metadata can be stored.

Data

Depending on the resource type, files including descriptive metadata can be uploaded via the web interface, API, or S3 clients.

Archiving

(Meta)data can be stored in Coscine for up to ten years after the end of the project.
