Cardiff University Research Data Repository (RDR)
any kind of data
The Cardiff University Research Data Repository is an institutional platform powered by Figshare and dedicated to the preservation, curation, and dissemination of research outputs produced by Cardiff University. It supports the university’s Open Research commitment and ensures compliance with major funder mandates by providing a stable environment for long-term data accessibility. The repository is multidisciplinary, hosting datasets, software, and media across all research domains. Every public output is assigned a DataCite DOI to facilitate formal citation and persistent discovery. Managed by the University Library Service, the platform enables FAIR principles through attributes such as standardized metadata, support for open-access licenses, and the provision of "metadata-only" records for restricted or sensitive datasets.
