Automated Software Metadata Publication

Welcome. This is the website for the virtual Software Metadata Publication organization (software-metadata.pub).

software-metadata.pub is an umbrella for projects in the software metadata publication space, run by a consortium of research organizations within the Helmholtz Association.

Projects

HERMES: Helmholtz Rich Metadata Software Publication

HERMES workflows enable automated publication of rich research software metadata and artifacts to publication repositories using open source tooling.

• Learn more on the HERMES website.

Software CaRD: Helmholtz Rich Metadata Software Publication

Software CaRD (Software Curation and Reporting Dashboard) is an open source application that presents software publication metadata for curation. Preprocessed metadata from automated pipelines are made accessible in a structured graphical view, with highlighted issues and conflicts. Software CaRD also assesses metadata for compliance with configurable policies, and lets users track and visualize relevant metadata for evaluation and reporting.

• Learn more on the Software CaRD website.
