Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS), based in the Netherlands, promotes "sustained access to digital research data". DANS actively encourages researchers to archive research data through the online archiving system EASY.

EASY provides access to thousands of datasets across disciplines. Examples include Geospatial Sciences, History, Archaeology and Social Sciences.

EASY can also be used to deposit research data. Data is stored securely and permanently in a sustainable manner, and made available to other researchers under conditions specified by the depositor. DANS also makes its data management plan publicly available.
