The DDI-Codebook (DDI-C) standard is currently used in the Gesis Data Archive (DAS) as a metadata format for the documentation and archiving of products, projects, and processes. In order to cover the full life cycle of research data and to ensure interchangeability and reusability of metadata externally and internally in the archive, DDI elements, which support the DDI-Lifecycle (DDI-L) version, are necessary. The aim of the project DDILimDAS (DDI-Lifecycle application in the GESIS Data Archive) is the development of a metadata schema in the DDI-L format and the conversion of the products, projects, and processes to DDI-L.
