Data management plan

The Data Management Plan or Data Management Plan (DMP) is a methodological document that describes the life cycle of the data collected, generated and processed during a research project, a doctoral thesis, etc. 

More and more funding entities like theH2020 and Horizon Europe and the State Plan They require the researchers to prepare a WMD.

It must contain information about:

  1. What data will be obtained to develop research.
  2. How they will be collected and processed.
  3. Which standards and what methodology will be followed?
  4. Who will be able to access the data.
  5. How they will be preserved when the search is complete.

     

    You have the free tool CORA.eiNa DMP (Research Data Management Plan) with templates adapted to the requirements of each funding body (H2020, ERC, State Plan) and the type of research you carry out (research project, doctoral thesis, etc.). 
    The tool allows you to save, edit and export your WMD, work collaboratively with other researchers and update it during the different phases of your search. Contains help and examples in all sections.  

    See user guide where all the processes associated with the creation of a data management plan are described, as well as the management of the user account itself. 

    When applying for a project, if you need to include information about the Data Management Plan, use this guide English version with recommendations for FAIR data management.

    To create a DMP you can also refer to the guide Data management plans.  

    For examples and more information see the document Data Management Plans I la version UPC adapted and abbreviated. The repository CORA. Research Data Repository (RDR) is a trusted repository, registered in the directory re3data.org
    Libraries support you in creating your data management plan, publishing open access data, and citing data. For the review of the Data Management Plan contact your library or info.biblioteques@upc. Edu

    Examples of H2020 FAIR Data Management Plans:

     

    The WMD is a living document, which is produced at the beginning of a search and is updated as many times as necessary.
