The DLCF Project in Brisbane Australia has developed a Research Activity ID for projects called RAiD. RAiD is a simple handle ID with an attached Data Management Record which holds minimal metadata for the project in the form of PIDs for workflows, tools, processes and people associated with the project. Integrated systems can use the RAiD and DMR content for automating access and allocations for storage and virtual tools while recording the access and outputs from their use. RAiD as a project PID removes the need for manual processes to access eResearch infrastructure and puts the research project at the centre of the Research Data Management process to improve line of sight through the entire data life cycle and its components.
