DataRescue Workflow

This guide describes the DataRescue workflow we use for DataRescue activities as developed by the DataRefuge project and EDGI, both at in-person events and when people work remotely. It explains the process that a URL/dataset goes through from the time it has been identified, either by a Seeder as "uncrawlable," or by other means, until it is made available as a record in the datarefuge.org CKAN data catalog. The process involves several stages, and is designed to maximize smooth hand-offs so that each phase is handled by someone with distinct expertise in the area they're tackling, while the data is always being tracked for security.

Note: This workflow is no longer supported as of May 21, 2017

Are you looking for the actual documentation?

We have moved the documentation to a more user-friendly format. You can now find the guide at datarefuge.github.io/workflow.

Note that we are still working on it, and will shortly add screenshots, etc.
