研究数据联盟（RDA，这个https URL）旨在使研究数据共享无障碍。它于2013年3月由澳大利亚政府、欧盟委员会、美国NSF和NIST共同成立。这是一个自下而上的组织，经过两年半的存在，聚集了来自100个不同国家的约3000名成员。RDA的工作以自下而上的方式组织，通过社区提出的工作组和兴趣小组。这些小组可以处理研究数据共享的任何方面，这意味着活动的巨大多样性。一些科学团体使用RDA作为中立的场所来讨论他们的学科互操作性框架。天文学有IVOA和FITS委员会，以及ADASS座谈会来处理天文数据系统。但是我们对许多RDA主题感兴趣，例如数据引用，包括动态数据库和数据存储库的引用，或者数据存储库的认证。此外，在讨论RDA的组织和程序时，还注入了建立IVOA和天文学数据共享的经验教训。RDA是一个独特的平台，可以与来自许多国家、学科和背景的数据从业者会面，掌握改进我们的数据实践的想法，确定共同感兴趣的主题，并通过提出新的兴趣和工作组，为来自许多学科和国家的专家提出有趣的主题进行讨论。
The Research Data Alliance (RDA, this https URL) aims at enabling research data sharing without barriers. It was founded in March 2013 by the Australian Government, the European Commission, and the USA NSF and NIST. It is a bottom-up organisation which after 2 years and a half of existence gathers around 3,000 members from 100 different countries. Work in RDA is organised in a bottom-up way, through Working Groups and Interest Groups proposed by the community. These Groups can deal with any aspect of research data sharing, which means a huge diversity in the activities. Some scientific communities use the RDA as a neutral place to hold the discussions about their disciplinary interoperability framework. Astronomy has the IVOA and the FITS Committee for that purpose, and the ADASS Colloquia to deal with astronomical data systems. But many RDA topics are of interest for us, for instance data citation, including citation of dynamic data bases and data repositories, or certification of data repositories. Also lessons learnt in building the IVOA and data sharing in astronomy are injected in the discussion of RDA organisation and procedures. The RDA is a unique platform to meet data practitioners from many countries, disciplines and profiles, to grasp ideas to improve our data practices, to identify topics of common interest and to raise interesting subjects for discussion involving specialists from many disciplines and countries by proposing new Interest and Working Groups.
