The Evidence Centre utilizes several technologies to support knowledge users with seamless access to all of its components. GREO (Gambling Research Exchange Ontario) uses Dataverse as the data preservation, archival and sharing platform. Centre content is based on DDI and Dublin core Metadata standards. Dataverse is OAI-PMH compatible; therefore, datasets archived by GREO are indexed by Google.
