Modern information technologies allow the allocation and unrestricted access to research data as open data. Data repositories provide the basis for debates on research results and constitute an important cornerstone in the creation of scholarly transparency. The potential of such systems goes far beyond the mere download and description of hosted files, yet it remains largely neglected in current academic practice. Contemporary repositories present the registered data rather as virtual flashcards.The project aims to establish an English-language virtual research environment (VRE) as a place of communication for the community-specific curation, annotation and discussion of research data on the example of the area studies of the post-Soviet region. The VRE is designed as a layer between distributed repositories and academic users.Connected to an established repository for digital long-term preservation and through links to various external data sources the knowledge and debates about research data shall be collected interactively and made accessible to both the academic community and the interested public. Thereby, the VRE contributes to the creation of a project-independent, transregional and sustainable information infrastructure. The upload of data collections and the aquisition of metadata will be closely linked to quality assessment and contextualization within the frame of scholarly discussions in one single place: interactive communication processes within the international research community replace the mere consumption of given static informations. The community will be involved in the curation of its own domain knowledge in ways already practiced in social networks and e-commerce. Processes and best practices will be established which ensure the gradual transfer of both the contentual and editorial responsibility for the VRE to the community.

现代信息技术允许分配和不受限制地访问研究数据作为开放数据。数据存储库为研究结果的辩论提供了基础，并构成了创建学术透明度的重要基石。这种系统的潜力远远超出了仅仅下载和描述托管文件，但在目前的学术实践中，它仍然在很大程度上被忽视。该项目旨在建立一个英语虚拟研究环境（VRE），作为一个交流场所，用于社区特定的策展，注释和讨论后苏联地区研究的研究数据。VRE被设计为分布式存储库和学术用户之间的一个层，连接到一个已建立的数字长期保存存储库，并通过链接到各种外部数据源，有关研究数据的知识和辩论将以交互方式收集，并向学术界和感兴趣的公众开放。因此，虚拟可再生能源有助于建立一个独立于项目的、跨区域的和可持续的信息基础设施。数据收集的上传和元数据的获取将与学术讨论框架内的质量评估和背景化密切相关：国际研究界的互动交流过程取代了对特定静态信息的单纯消费。社区将以在社交网络和电子商务中已经实践的方式参与自己领域知识的管理。将建立流程和最佳实践，以确保将VRE的内容和编辑责任逐步转移给社区。
