Data Management Plan version 3

Work: AfricanBioServices' Data Management Plan (DMP) is a document that will describe the data management life cycle for all data sets that will be collected, processed or generated by AfricanBioServices .It will outline how research data will be handled during AfricanBioServices, and even after the project is completed, describing what data will be collected, processed or generated and following what methodology and standards, whether and how this data will be shared and/or made open, and how it will be curated and preserved. The DMP will not be a fixed document; it evolves and gains more precision and substance during the lifespan of the project. The first version of the DMP is expected to be delivered within the first 6 months of the project by NTNU in collaboration with TAWIRI. This DMP deliverable will be in compliance with the template provided by the Commission. More elaborated versions of the DMP will be delivered at later at M 18, M36 and M48. New versions of the DMP will be created whenever important changes to the project occur due to inclusion of new data sets, changes in consortium policies or external factors.
