MO|RE data becomes RDC Motor Performance
Piece by piece this platform will transform and become the new RDC Motor Performance.
The Research Data Center Motor Performance will be the world's first sports science data center and will focus on the collection, storage and exchange of data on motor performance. The center is currently in the process of being set up and uses the existing infrastructure of the MO|RE data repository as a base. The RDC Motor Performance will enable researchers to share their motor test data and simultaneously receive access to verified data sets from other researchers.
The aim is to create a platform for the exchange of data on motor performance, which may also be of importance for other disciplines such as psychology or education and health sciences. The RDC Motor Performance will offer various access options, including open access, remote access and guest researcher workstations, in order to meet different needs. The FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Re-usable) will be implemented to ensure the findability, reusability and quality of the data.
Another priority of the RDC Motor Performance is to support the data expertise of researchers, especially young scientists. The center provides support materials for this purpose. Overall, RDC Motor Performance will play an important role in interdisciplinary research and connecting motor data with other socially relevant data.

MO|RE data continues its journey: Towards new data horizons in 2024!
Under the motto "New Year - New Paths" starting from January 2024, we are taking a significant step into the future in collaboration with KonsortSWD. Transforming into an advanced Research Data Center for Motor Performance (RDC MoP).
The RDC MoP provides researchers in sports science and related disciplines with the opportunity to archive their motor performance data, adhering to the highest data protection standards. This allows for various secure ways to make the data accessible for scientific purposes. Additionally, it offers the chance to access data from other researchers in a secure environment.
A groundbreaking solution to ensure secure and effective access to research data.
Join us on this exciting journey!

Relaunch of the German Motor Test
We are pleased to present the relaunch of the German Motor Test - now even more child-friendly and informative!
The German Motor Test measures the physical fitness of children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 18 with the help of eight simple tasks. It thus helps to identify deficits in good time and to initiate targeted support measures.
With a child-friendly presentation, a new homepage and an appealing image film, a new version of this important tool for measuring motor performance has been designed.
The equally brand new image film highlights the importance of motor development and the benefits of the German Motor Test. The film conveys not only the commitment to promoting children's motor skills, but also the passion behind this project.
We invite you to visit the updated homepage at www.deutscher-motorik-test.de. There you will not only find detailed information about the test and its scientific background, but also help for future test administrators to support them in the implementation in the best possible way.

Kick-off meeting of the dvs ad-hoc committee ''Research data management"
Recently, the kick-off meeting of the ad-hoc committee "Research Data Management" of the dvs (German Association for Sport Science) took place in Frankfurt on the Main. The committee was decided by the dvs in October 2022. The goal of the committee is to define the specific requirements and needs of sports science for sustainable research data management. Possibilities for the integration, development and funding of a needs-specific research data infrastructure are to be worked out. This will build on existing solutions in the sports science community.
The focus of the kick-off meeting was on defining future work priorities and the first work steps. In the coming months, the main focus will be to take stock of already applied practices and application perspectives of sustainable research data management within different sport science sub-disciplines.
The MO|RE data team is looking forward to contributing its expertise and experience from the establishment and operation of MO|RE data's repository, is excited about the work in the committee and what developments on research data management in sports science will be achieved through it.
