The National Relay Station, also known as Stáisiún Athsheachadta Náisiúnta na hÉireann, was created through the European Language Resources Infrastructure (ELRI Project) by researchers in the ADAPT Centre, which is located in Dublin City University. The ADAPT centre is ‘the world-leading SFI Research Centre for AI-Driven Digital Content Technology”. The ELRI project ran from 2017-2019 and was co-funded by the European Commission under the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) programme. The aim of ELRI was to develop robust infrastructures for gathering, preparing and providing language resources to improve Machine Translation engines (in particular the ones of the CEF eTranslation service).
