We're a nonprofit
driven by community needs
i2 is a not-for-profit entity with a purpose that does not involve optimizing shareholder value or compromizing on free-software or open-data ideals. Our mission is to provide best-of-breed IT services to Danish research while furthering freedom and transparancy in academia and administration.
We're predictable
- no surprises
For more than 30 years, we've run the
Danish research network along with many other services. This means that data travels between research institutions and ScienceData with high bandwith and low latency. It also means that expenses for this are already covered. Our investments in hardware, operation and development are kept to a strict minimum and covered by grants and institutional billing. You, as a researcher, will not see any bills unless you explicitly request large-scale, dedicated extra storage.
All research data is welcome
from the humanities over social to natural sciences and beyond
ScienceData is an ecosystem of data services, as far as possible catering to the whole research community. Our ambition is to provide a stable, trusted home for Danish research data from all branches of science. Researchers are encouraged to provide feedback on needs and wishes.
If you're affiliated with a Danish academic institution you can start using ScienceData right away - via the
web interface or the
Nextcloud Files app. To learn more about ScienceData, read below, go straight to the
documentation, or read news and get tips and tricks on the
blog.
