Design Criteria of Korean LTER Data Platform Model for Full Life-cycle Data Management

摘要

Long-term ecological research (LTER) is conducted in the form of collaborative research that comprehensively accumulates data for ecology, environment, and biodiversity over a long-term based on accurate data management. Previously, LTER in Korea had many data-management issues, including the absence of integrated repository, making it difficult to conduct data-based research and limiting integrated data use. In addition, international collaborative research was impossible because of the lack of global data-sharing. Against this backdrop, this study was conducted to develop the design criteria for a Korean LTER data platform model that enables full life-cycle LTER data management through various stakeholders and international data-linking.
