Simulation Data Lake (SDL) for scientific simulation data management

Data management, Data related services

A scalable repository specialized for the management and long-term preservation of scientific simulation data.

  • Comprehensive Data Support: Robust storage for diverse formats, including simulation inputs, outputs, and both pre- and post-processed datasets.
  • FAIR Principles Alignment: Infrastructure designed for Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability to ensure data can be easily integrated and reused.
  • Interoperable Ecosystem: Seamless integration with external geospatial research platforms and workflows via flexible API access.

Key Value: Promoting scientific innovation and collaboration by enabling researchers to combine and analyze large volumes of data from multiple sources efficiently.

Practical example

Researchers generating massive numerical simulation results require a structured environment for permanent storage and sharing.

This service facilitates, among other activities:

  • Permanent Preservation: Guaranteeing long-term security for structured sets of results generated from complex geoscience simulations.
  • FAIR Metadata Tagging: Providing specialized support for tagging data to ensure it meets rigorous scientific standards for searchability and access.
  • Controlled Sharing: Enabling secure, on-demand data retrieval and sharing based on specific scientific needs and collaborative requirements.

Case Study: The service supports a geoscience research team in moving from fragmented local storage to the SDL, utilizing IT4LIA specialist support to implement automated metadata tagging and API-based retrieval for their global project partners.
