3. “A Data Management Plan (DMP) typically outlines what research
data will be created during the course of a research project and
how it will be created, plans for sharing and preserving the data and
any restrictions that may need to be applied.”

but planning is indispensable."

5. • What data will be created
• What policies will apply to the data
• Who will own and have access to the data
• What data management practices will be used
• What facilities and equipment will be required
• Who will be responsible for each of these activities
• And …
– Much more
Just some of the sorts of RDM decisions that need to be
planned:

7. Example funder policies
• Australian funding example- ARC
“Researchers must outline briefly in their Proposal how they plan to manage
research data arising from a Project” Section A11.5.2
• International examples:
• National Science Foundation
“Proposals submitted … must include a supplementary document of no more
than two pages labeled "Data Management Plan".”
• Wellcome Trust
“Data sharing plans should address seven key questions as clearly and
concisely as possible, as noted in the Trust's Guidance for researchers:
Developing a data management and sharing plan”

MIND MAP
What will you consider during Research Data Management
planning that will lead to FAIR data during and at the end of
your project?

12. Final word: DMP future directions
• Live DMPs
• maDMPs
• Exposing DMPs
• Standards for DMPs
• Force11 FAIR DMPs group

13. DMP Common Standards - Outputs
• Common data model for machine-actionable DMPs
• to model information from standard DMPs
• NOT a template
• NOT a questionnaire
• modular design
– core set of elements
– domain specific extensions
• Reference implementations
• ready to use models
– JSON, XML, RDF, etc.
• Guidelines for adoption of the common data model
• requirements for supporting systems
• pilot studies
