Language Data Commons of Australia

This workshop will introduce you to tools  to efficiently migrate material in various formats to the standards developed by LDaCA.

HC Coombs Building

The Language Data Commons of Australia infrastructure is based on widely-accepted standards such as Research Object Crates (<a href="https://www.researchobject.org/ro-crate/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">RO-Crate</a>) and the Oxford Common File Layout (<a href="https://ocfl.io/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">OCFL</a>). The project has been running for almost two years and the processes and tools for aligning data with these standards are now well-developed. This workshop aims to show the application of those tools to data in a variety of formats to efficiently migrate material to the LDaCA standards.The workshop is intended for data librarians and other professionals who are interested in these issues, but participation is open to anyone. We hope that participants will have some experience of working with code and/or metadata and that they will be able to bring datasets which they work with (or are responsible for) to use in the practical exercises which will make up a large part of the workshop. However, we will have example datasets available and we also are open to the possibility of participants working in teams based on complementary skills.The workshop will run over two days; the first day will be a hybrid event, the second day will be in person participation only.
