The nature of the ‘Bridge of Data’ project is to design and build a platform that allows collecting, searching, analyzing and sharing open research data and to provide it with unique data collected from the three most important Pomeranian universities: Gdańsk University of Technology, Medical University of Gdańsk and the University of Gdańsk. These data will be made available free of charge to the scientific community, entrepreneurs and the public. A bridge will be built to allow reuse of Open Research Data.

The available research data will be described by standards developed by dedicated, experienced scientific teams. The metadata will allow other external computer systems to interpret the collected data. ORD descriptions will also include data reuse or reduction scenarios to facilitate further processing.
