Permissible Values

Text	Description	Meaning	Other Information
Storage	Provision of storage space for research data as a service to external users. Access is possible via web protocols.
Data Curation	The activity of managing and promoting the use of data from their point of creation to ensure that they are fit for contemporary purpose and available for discovery and reuse. For dynamic datasets this may mean continuous enrichment or updating to keep them fit for purpose. Higher levels of curation will also involve links with annotation and with other published material.

Web Application	Software that is installed on a server and can be used by users via a web page and the internet.
Library/API	Collection of pre-implemented functions for a specific task that can be accessed via a well-defined interface.

Training	Standalone training for self-study can be considered a technical service (usually a web application). Generally speaking, training materials often come in the form of specific measures or tutorials that are attached to a service and that are designed to improve the user's service experience. Our joint understanding of training as a stand-alone service, however, is not limited to the above and includes materials designed for education in all fields of research data management.
Tool/Application	Software that can be downloaded and executed locally on the users' hardware.
