7 -The **Art & Research Service Navigator** helps you find relevant information, services and tools throughout the different stages of your project. It brings together guidance on topics such as research and project data, funding, copyright, data protection, storage, collaboration, publishing and long-term preservation.
7 +Research data are not only generated in scientific projects. Artistic working processes also produce a wide variety of materials that should be documented, organised, preserved and, where appropriate, published. Examples of research and project data include:
8 +\\• Sketches, drafts and notebooks
9 +• Photographs, videos and audio recordings
10 +• Interview material and transcripts
11 +• Measurement data and experimental results
12 +• Documentation of rehearsals, workshops or performances
13 +• Digital models, software and programme code
14 +• Archival materials and collection data
15 +• Project reports, publications and exhibition materials
16 +\\The Service Navigator helps you to organise these materials effectively throughout the entire life cycle of an artistic or scientific project.

30 -Before exploring the individual project stages, it is useful to understand what we mean by **materials and data** in the context of artistic and research practice.
61 +I publish, archive or share the results of my project. What should I focus on now? • What materials do I want to publish or make available for further use? • What rights need to be clarified? • Which licence is suitable for my results? • Where can I publish data, documentation or artistic works? • How are results archived in the long term? • How can others find and cite my work? Topics • Publication of research and project data • Open Access and Open Science • Open Artistic Research • Licences and re-use • Repositories and archives • Long-term archiving • Visibility, referenceability and citation

32 -Research data are not limited to measurements, spreadsheets or scientific datasets. Artistic and research processes can generate a wide variety of digital and analogue materials that document the development, methods and results of a project.
