Projects

A project is defined as a collection of data. In the RDMS you can start by adding data and defining the project or the other way around; first define a project and then add the data.

Upon starting the Projects section you will see a list of the projects where you have a role. By selecting a project, properties of the project; metadata templates and applicable policies and the project members are shown.

Once a project is created, one can add collections and data objects to that particular project. For more information about uploading data, please refer to the section about data. Small single data objects can be uploaded via the web interface. For uploading large files or collections, using WebDav or command-line is the preferred method. In case you want to add a large set of small files to a collection or a project, please pack your data in a zip or tar archive and upload the package. After uploading, you can unpack the data inside RDMS. This will tremendously reduce the operation time.
