Maintaining Access to Public Data: Lessons from Data Refuge
Year: 2018
Type: preprint
Abstract: The Data Refuge project began in December 2016 after fellows in the Penn Program for Environmental Humanities (PPEH) grew concerned about how the incoming presidential administration might find ways to limit access to federal climate and environmental data. This article describes the history and precedence for this project, the lessons learned through our activities, and some of the future en devours undertaken by stakeholders in the landscape of preserving and managing government data.
