+====== WP1: KCDC extension ======
+The experimental setups in Russia and Germany generate or have generated large amounts of
+primary data. This have to be specified and a common ‘language’ in data description have to be
+defined. This needs a careful preparation of the data and extension of the KCDC software and web
+interface. Within this project, we will adapt the TAIGA data to the KCDC concept and provide an
+extended public data centre. While the scientific harvest by and within both collaborations will
+continue for some time independently, many scientific questions (in particular multi-messenger
+related analyses) remain still unaddressed, because the resources to perform those analyses are
+not available. A later new analysis of the data, e.g. using improved hadronic interaction models in
+the shower reconstruction, or combining other parameters of the individual experiments may shed
+new light on the origin and nature of the cosmic rays. A full return from the closer scientific
+community back to the society that has funded this endeavour can be achieved best, if the original
+data and the accompanying software tools are made publicly available in an open-access manner.
+And that not only for KASCADE, but also for other particle detector arrays as well as cosmic ray
+data of a different format; i.e. here, the data from the TAIGA experiment, where the data have to be
+selected and prepared in Russia before it can be added to the data centre.
+This central and distinct work will apply the concept and software of KCDC to follow the request of
+the funding agencies to make (at least the high level) scientific data public also in Russia. In
+addition, specific data will be included for the experts at both sides to combine the data in common
+analysis methods. The extended data centre and the experience gained within this project will
+serve for data releases of present and forthcoming large-scale experiments in astroparticle
+physics.
+Specific tasks:
+  * Software extension of KCDC to allow for a new databank and data shop (KIT-IKP, KIT-SCC, ISDCT)
+  * Preparing and providing the TAIGA data for inclusion into KCDC (ISU, MSU)
+  * Putting the new data into KCDC (KIT-IKP)
