# Overview

**HERMES** is an acronym for "**HE**lmholtz **R**ich **ME**tadata **S**oftware publication".

The project received initial funding as a 
[Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration](https://helmholtz-metadaten.de) 
[2020 cohort project](https://helmholtz-metadaten.de/en/inf-projects/hermes-helmholtz-rich-metadata-software-publication) 
(ZT-I-PF-3-006) from the *Initiative and Networking Fund*
of the [Helmholtz Association](https://www.helmholtz.de/en/about-us/structure-and-governance/initiating-and-networking).

The project developed the initial implementation of the
[HERMES workflow](../index.md)
and cooperated with the upstream [InvenioRDM](https://invenio-software.org/products/rdm/)
and [Dataverse](https://dataverse.org) projects.
