Data Management Plan

The Data Management Plan (DMP) consist of a brief plan to define what data sets the project will generate or process, whether and how these data will be made accessible, and how they will be curated, stored and preserved. The DMP should also provide information on the measures taken to safeguard and protect sensitive data. The datamanagement plan must address the following issues: 1. Making data Findable 2. Making data openly Accessible 3. Making data Interoperable 4. Increase data Re-use 5. Allocation of recourses and data security The data management plan will also have to specify if certain datasets remain closed and the reasons for not giving access should be given (for instance, if one of the project objectives would be jeopardised by providing open access to certain data or some of the generated data are considered sensitive, etc.). If necessary, the DMP will be updated in the Midterm Report (D1.3) and/or in the Final Report (D1.4). The DMP will be updated regularly as necessary if requested by the funding authority.
