D5.4 Data management plan updated version

This deliverable provides an update of the Data management plan (DMP) submitted in M6 as D5.1. It incorporates the details provided in D5.1 for the initial plan and captures developments in processes and plans that have occurred in the last 18 months of the project. The deliverable is based on the European Commission template for Horizon 2020 projects1 with some additional answers around future regulatory compliance and sustainability aspects. SYNTHEMA has populated this DMP in line with recommended EC guidelines. This update will be further enhanced towards the end of the project where the plans outlined here will be in a more finalised state and close to full implementation.  SYNTHEMA remains novel in that the data assets to be produced will be synthetic in nature. There may yet be a risk of re-identification given that the synthetic data will be generated based on inference from real data. The plan therefore considers this paradigm carefully in its discussion and continues to work alongside other WP5 risk assessment and management approaches. The updated DMP continues to describe the motivations for conducting a DMP, the approach taken and the developments thus far. As per D5.1, D5.4 provides the M24 Update.
