The two applicants and their team are endeavouring to implement an openly accessible research data infrastructure for the interactive and interoperable use of applied geochemical data with a global coverage using the statistical environment R and Shiny App. The infrastructural measure is first addressed to an interdisciplinary community applying combined lead isotope data of ores and objects to their research. Implementing this focused infrastructure, the way is paved for a number of isotope applications aside from lead isotopes. In contrast to other geochemical data found in the geoscientific literature and databases, lead isotopes are a specific interdisciplinary tool for metal provenance of archaeological objects. They are therefore widely scattered in archaeological, geoscientific, chemical, and material scientific journals and books. This makes access to non-digitized data particularly difficult. Many reference data lists for lead isotope data of ores have been published by individual research groups, often selectively by regions-of-interest and therefore very limited from a global perspective. The workload of the entire community is consequently multiplied with each research building and maintaining their own databases. At the same time, their individual structures resulted in heterogeneous and incomplete meta-information. Moreover, traditional ways of publishing data result in fixed, non-extendable lists. At the same time, access to the data is heavily restricted because not all institutions can provide it. GlobaLID will aim to establish with the community a standard for reporting lead isotope data. Based on this standard, it will create a modern, interactive and long overdue data infrastructure for lead isotope data following the FAIR principles. By creating an interactive interface, researchers from around the world are provided with the opportunity to work interactively and independently with lead isotope data, while a core team of experts supported by contributors from the community ensures a long-term infrastructure, a high-quality database and a continuously developing application. Although the database can be used separately, the web application will provide an alternative and convenient way to work with lead isotopes and create publication-ready output. Linking GlobaLID with existing databases and information systems of related disciplines will enhance its potential and guarantees a most modern approach. The application is thus well suited to become a substantial interface between infrastructural approaches such as NFDI4Earth and NFDI4Objects. Beside the aim to standardize lead isotope data and significantly ease the access to them for an interdisciplinary community, GlobaLID also want to bring the whole lead isotope community closer together. Therefore, the integration of researchers from less wealthy countries will be fostered by active support and encouragement in their participation of the project workshops.

两位申请者和他们的团队正在努力实施一个开放访问的研究数据基础设施，以便利用统计环境R和SHINY App以交互和可互操作的方式使用具有全球覆盖范围的应用地球化学数据。基础设施措施首先针对一个跨学科社区，将矿石和物体的铅同位素组合数据应用于其研究。实施这一重点基础设施，为铅同位素以外的许多同位素应用铺平了道路。与地球科学文献和数据库中发现的其他地球化学数据不同，铅同位素是研究考古物品金属来源的具体跨学科工具。因此，它们广泛地散布在考古、地球科学、化学和材料科学期刊和书籍中。这使得获取非数字化数据特别困难。个别研究小组公布了许多矿石铅同位素数据的参考数据清单，这些数据清单往往是有选择地按感兴趣的区域列出的，因此从全球角度来看非常有限。因此，整个社区的工作量因每个研究机构建立和维护自己的数据库而成倍增加。同时，它们各自的结构导致了元信息的异质性和不完全性。此外，传统的数据发布方式导致了固定的、不可扩展的列表。与此同时，对这些数据的访问受到严格限制，因为并非所有机构都能提供这些数据。GlobaLID将致力于与社区建立一个报告铅同位素数据的标准。在这一标准的基础上，它将按照公平原则，为铅同位素数据创建一个现代化的、互动的、早该有的数据基础设施。通过创建互动界面，来自世界各地的研究人员有机会与铅同位素数据进行互动和独立的工作，同时由社区贡献者支持的核心专家团队确保长期的基础设施、高质量的数据库和不断开发的应用程序。虽然数据库可以单独使用，但网络应用程序将提供一种替代和方便的方式来处理铅同位素并创建可供出版的产出。将GlobaLID与相关学科的现有数据库和信息系统联系起来，将增强其潜力，并保证采用最现代化的方法。因此，该应用程序非常适合成为NFDI4Earth和NFDI4Objects等基础设施方法之间的重要接口。除了使铅同位素数据标准化并大大方便跨学科社区获取这些数据的目标外，GlobaLID还希望使整个铅同位素社区更紧密地联系在一起。因此，将通过积极支持和鼓励较不富裕国家的研究人员参加项目讲习班来促进他们的融入。
