Such initiatives are for instance the META-SHARE platform (Gavrilidou et al., 2012), the CLARIN VLO (Broeder et al., 2010) and the LRE Map (Calzolari et al., 2012;Del Gratta et al., 2014b;Del Gratta et al., 2014a), with their sets of metadata.
the LREMap was launched as an initiative at LREC 2010 in order to crowdsource reliable and accurate documentation for the largest possible set of resources.
