Data Management
Overview
Many funding agencies, including the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), require a data management plan (DMP) as a component of grant applications. This requirement encourages researchers to consider in greater detail how their data will be preserved and shared.
Depending on the particular research community, data can include spreadsheets, images, videos, audio files, text files, models, computer software and code, patient records, interview transcripts, survey results, field/lab notes, and physical objects such as artifacts and samples.
The DMP Tool can be used to prepare data management plans required by specific funding agencies.
