Multimedia content portal (ARCA)
The ARCA multimedia content portal is an RSS aggregator for the academic community. The service is the result of a project undertaken in collaboration with the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid in order to federate information relating to multimedia content and broadcasts streamed by RedIRIS affiliated institutions.
This service is a portal, a metadata aggregator open to any Internet user, which integrates the multimedia content of affiliated institutions in order to distribute them to a wider audience.
The site divides content into three categories: videocasts/podcasts, live events and event announcements. In addition, videos are catalogued according to the five departments defined by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO):
- Health Sciences
- Experimental Sciences
- Social and Legal Sciences
- Technical Training
- Humanities
