Data management policy (DMPol) template for research infrastructures – towards research services

This template was created for the Academy of Finland’s FIRI2020 call for research infrastructures.

Research infrastructures should have a research data management policy that offers guidelines and facilitates the appropriate maintenance of research data. This entails having clear instructions on how and where the produced data can be preserved for reasonable periods of time and on how the user should make the data available for verification and (re-)use.¹ Data produced by the research infrastructure should be FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable and re-usable).
