HORTUS supports interoperability.

This means:

• metadata can be reused externally
• data can be exported to other platforms
• systems can exchange structured information

Start from your dissemination goals.

• identify target platforms first
• design metadata accordingly
• ensure compatibility with external systems

Prioritise:

• clarity
• completeness
• standardisation

Focus on:

• descriptive fields
• keywords
• identifiers
• licences

Before exporting data:

• verify metadata completeness
• check format compatibility
• align with external standards
• avoid custom fields that break compatibility

HORTUS allows:

• internal discovery (Marketplace)
• linking to projects and events
• sharing across users
• exporting to external platforms
