The Data Lifecycle Instrument (DaLI) enables management and sharing of data from instruments and observations, allowing researchers to:

• acquire, transfer, process, and store data from experiments and observations in a unified workflow.
• manage data collections over their entire lifecycle.
• share and publish data.
• enhance outreach and education opportunities.
