Kadi4Mat Software Ecosystem

What is Kadi4Mat?

The ecosystem around Kadi4Mat, the generic and open source virtual research environment, is a comprehensive set of tools and libraries designed for managing, sharing, and integrating engineering data. It is centered around research data management, ensuring that data is standardized, well-structured, and easily accessible. The ecosystem facilitates the implementation of the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles, making it a valuable tool for fostering collaboration and innovation in the engineering community. It enables interdisciplinary collaboration by providing functionality for data sharing and integrating smoothly with established workflows for simulations and experiments. It is suitable for researchers, data scientists, and industry professionals engaged in data-driven research as well as open data initiatives.
