Summary of EMBRC /St Andrews requirements for Curation[edit]

Detailed requirements[edit]

  4. How will data accessibility be maintained for the long term? E.g. What is your curation policy regarding media migration?
    > None to my knowledge

  5. Do you track with a logging system all curation activities?
    > Not to my knowledge

  6. What metadata standards do you use for providing
    a. Discovery,
    b.Contextualisation (including rights, privacy, security, quality,suitability...)
    c.Detailed access-level (i.e. connecting software to data within an operating environment)?
    > No standard policy

  7. If you curate software how do you do it? Preserving the software or a software specification?

  9. If you curate the operating environment how do you do it? Preserving the environment or an environment specification?
