The Earlham Institute Advanced Training infrastructure provides a programme of events, aimed at life scientists who are engaging in increasingly data-driven research, specifically those related to -omics techniques. The increasing trend for large-scale research projects means, in areas such as genomics with fast-moving technological advancements, that higher education curricula often fails to keep pace. This leads to skills gaps in recent graduates who are often missing the vital combination of...

This resource is published by the Society for Libyan Studies; it is designed and supported by King's Digital Lab.The aim of the Gazetteer is to record, and to provide with Unique Identifiers, locations and monuments within modern Libya which are of significance to the history of the area up to 1950; we are offering as many variant names as possible, together with geodata from various sources. The resultant identifiers (URI) can be read by a computer, and used by anyone recording heritage...

What it does: the team uses and develops digital recording methodologies to support integrated archaeological excavation and research. Direct to digital recording, including in-trench survey and data capture, is supported by a GIS database system and on-site wireless networks. The facility includes databases, robotic total station and GPS survey equipment, a wireless field network including tablet computers, and expertise in their use. There are also dedicated areas for processing and studying...

The National Archives (TNA) is the official archive of the UK government and for England and Wales, making available to the public a vast collection of historical records dating back over 1,000 years and including the UK Government Web Archive and legislation.gov.uk. Our goal is to be an archive for everyone, and we are taking an entrepreneurial, disruptive, and inclusive approach to reaching this goal. One important sector we serve is research, and as a UKRI Independent Research Organisation...

The Natural Environment Research Council  (NERC) Environmental Data Service (EDS) provides a focal point for NERC's scientific data and information.   The EDS consists of a network of environmental data centres.  These centres hold data covering all aspects of environmental science, gathered from environmental scientists working in the UK and around the world. The EDS are responsible for maintaining environmental data and making them available to all users, not just NERC researchers but others...
