Our Research Data Infrastructure

The FAIRagro partners operate numerous relevant repositories – central, digital storage locations for the long-term archiving, management and publication of research data, documents and publications – with access to national and international research domains. We have compiled them here. The FAIRagro Search Hub Repository Finder offers further helpful repositories in the field of agricultural sciences.

BonaRes Knowledge Library

The BonaRes Knowledge Library of UFZ is a structured database for scientific publications on processes in soils and related soil properties providing valuable information for model simulations.

BonaRes Repositorium

The BonaRes Repository hosted at ZALF provides access to German national and international soil and agricultural research data, soil profile data and time-series from agricultural long-term experiments (LTE).

e!DAL-PGP

e!DAL-PGP, provided by IPK, is a plant genomics and phenomics research data repository (PGP). It publishes large volumes of primary data files in a FAIR manner. PGP is accepted as a data publication repository by Nature publishing group and Giga Science, ELIXIR, de.NBI.

Edaphobase

The European data warehouse Edaphobase combines data from diverse sources (literature, museum collections, research data) on soil animals and their sites of occurrence. The data query portal of Edaphobase is open access and provides basic data-analysis tools. Edpahobase is provided by Senckenberg – Leibniz Institution for Biodiversity and earth System Research.

GBIS/I

GBIS/I is an information system of the IPK ex situ collection for crop and wild relatives. It provides passport data and primary evaluation data.

JKI Data Cube

As part of the JKI Spatial Data Infrastructure, JKI-DataCube is an Array Database Management System, which makes multi-dimensional time series of gridded geodata (e.g., weather and phenological data or satellite imagery) available by using standardized web services.

Read more about this in our news: FAIRagro and the JKI Datacube.

Thünen Atlas

The Thünen Atlas is an interactive geoportal where the spatial data and maps produced at the Thünen Institute are being published and made available via standardized APIs. These data relate to the whole of Germany and cover the topics rural development, agriculture, forestry and marine ecosystems.

OpenAgrar

OpenAgrar is the collective repository of research institutions affiliated with the BMEL in Germany. It is an open access repository which publishes, stores, archives and distributes documents, publication references and research data.

DWD’s Open Data Server

The Open Data Server of the DWD provides spatial weather and climate information including data model forecasts, radar data, current measurements and observations and a large amount of separate types of climate data.

PlabiPD

PlabiPD of FZJ contains plant genomic, transcriptomic and ontology data for crops relevant to the German landscape. It provides careful annotation of plant genomes using manual derived annotation and curation data.

PhenoRob data infrastructure

PhenoRob is an infrastructure of UBN, providing agricultural field data spanning the scale from single plots to the region, including field phenotyping and satellite data. Data are linked to mechanistic and structural plant models as well as economic and ecological landscape models.

PUBLISSO

The PUBLISSO Repository for Life Sciences is an infrastructure for secondary publication of articles, books, proceedings and research data provided by ZB MED.

SRADI

SRADI (Smart Rural Areas Data Infrastructure) of TUM is an interdisciplinary data platform for the comprehensive structuring and sharing of research data in the field of life sciences.
