NPOWER D8.1 Data Management Plan - Version 1

This deliverable D8.1 “Data Management Plan” describes the management of the data collected, generated and processed along the project lifetime.

The data management plan (DMP) provides a summary of data expected from NPOWER. NPOWER results are formed by deliverables, scientific publications, research data and datasets and multimedia material. Most of these data are text and numerical (.docx, .xlsx, .pdf), but there is also a significant amount of images and videos. 

The dissemination of results follows the principle ‘as open as possible, as closed as necessary’. In addition, a certain amount of peer-reviewed scientific publications will be generated and they will be managed according to the open science approach.

NPOWER Consortium will ensure that results are made findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR), respecting the restrictions of IPRs and ethics (personal data protection). Scientific publications, their related metadata and research data will be stored in a public trusted repository, adapting to the multidisciplinary character of NPOWER (Zenodo). This repository provides a safe long-term storage and backup of project results.

This deliverable is the first version of the Data Management Plan. However, the DMP is a living document which will be updated along the project according to schedule and when significant changes take place.
