What You’ll Do:
• Metadata and Workflow Development: Design and implement metadata templates, data standards, and workflows for heritage science data, ensuring consistency and interoperability across the GLAM sector.
• Digital Documentation Systems: Configure and test platforms like ResearchSpace, Arches for Science, and Cordra, creating reusable pilots and showcasing best practices in digital documentation and FAIR data preparation.
• Data Ingestion and Extraction: Develop practical demonstrations for integrating data into the HSDS and extracting it for new digital resources, ensuring accessibility for diverse users.
• Community Collaboration: Work with National Gallery staff, project partners, and the wider GLAM community to refine workflows and procedures, ensuring inclusivity for smaller organisations and individual researchers.
• Training and Support: Deliver training sessions, develop support materials, and provide technical guidance to empower GLAM professionals in adopting these tools.
• Documentation and Recommendations: Produce detailed technical documentation, user guidelines, and strategic recommendations for future system enhancements. |
