iSee Data Management Plan (v0.2)

The document details the Data Management Plan (DMP) for the iSee project. It describes how the different data produced or consumed by the project are handled during the entire lifetime of the project. The scope of this document is to provide a reference document describing how data assets are organized, secured, made available, transported and protected, from their generation to destruction.

This Data Management Plan seeks at addressing the following two objectives:
1.    This document provides a comprehensive overview of all data used, collected or generated in the project and a characteristization of the data. It ensures that the appropriate governance policies are in place to meet legal, security, regulatory or ethical requirements.

2.    Most European research funding agencies (such as the ANR  in France) require all projects funded in 2019 onwards to produce a Data Management Plan (DMP).  This is intended to support European and international alignment efforts on the structure of open research data, and is guided by the principle: “as open as possible, as closed as necessary”.

The data management plan evolves along with the project with continuous adaptations as the data and project change.
