What is a DMP?
A brief plan that outlines
• what data will be created and how
• how it will be managed (storage, back-up, access…)
• plans for data sharing and preservation
![Page 4: Data Management Planning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56813ff4550346895dab0f90/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why develop a DMP?
DMPs are often submitted with grant applications, but are useful whenever researchers are creating data to:
• Make informed decisions to anticipate and avoid problems
• Avoid duplication, data loss and security breaches
• Develop procedures early on for consistency
• Ensure data are accurate, complete, reliable and secure
• Save time and effort

Five common themes1. Description of data to be collected / created
(i.e. content, type, format, volume...)
2. Standards / methodologies for data collection & management
3. Ethics and Intellectual Property (highlight any restrictions on data sharing e.g. embargoes, confidentiality)
4. Plans for data sharing and access (i.e. how, when, to whom)
5. Strategy for long-term preservation

How to write a DMP
![Page 10: Data Management Planning](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56813ff4550346895dab0f90/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Advice on writing DMPs
• Keep it short and simple, but be specific
• Seek advice - consult and collaborate
• Base plans on available skills and support
• Make sure implementation is feasible
• Justify any resources or restrictions needed
• Remember: plans change and should evolve

A satirical response – what not to do
“I will store all data on at least one, and possibly up to 50, hard drives in my lab. The directory structure will be custom, not self-explanatory, and in no way documented or described.
Students working with the data will be encouraged to make their own copies and modify them as they please, in order to ensure that no one can ever figure out what the actual real
raw data is. Backups will rarely, if ever, be done.”
