Instituto Politécnico de Bragança's Data repository
The data repository facilitates the storage, management, preservation, and use of research data prepared or gathered by IPB researchers or in collaborative research projects with other national or international institutions. Depositing research data in the IPB's data repository guarantees good curation practices, long-term preservation, and greater scientific dissemination.
What is a Dataverse?
A Dataverse represents the set of one or more Datasets or Dataverses.
