The just-released DRIS map is part of the DRIS enhancements planned for the DRIS+ project that OpenAIRE has agreed to fund within their Open Innovation Call.
The end-goal of the DRIS+ project is to implement a REST API on top of the directory in order to allow the automated retrieval of metadata for the DRIS records. This is expected to simplify the process for CRIS harvesting and validation as certified data providers by OpenAIRE, but also to allow snapshots to be eventually collected for a specific national CRIS landscape.
We look forward to working with the international RIM community for the purpose of collecting as comprehensive as possible a 'photograph' of the available CRIS infrastructure worldwide. Please use the online DRIS form to provide data for any missing CRIS system you would wish to see added to the directory.
