Overview
RDL Hub is a global open-data platform where researchers share the raw data they produce under open-science principles — not a commercial marketplace. The default, first-class flow is free sharing: upload the data, pick an open license and publish in one click.
Every dataset has metadata and a citation: a file list, description, DOI and ready-to-use citation text together. Reusers add it to their library in one click ('Claim free'). A researcher who wishes can also offer data under a license, but the emphasis is on sharing and reuse; copyright always stays with the producer.
