EPISA Data Management Plan

The DMP aimed to describe the EPISA project data summary, such as the purpose of the data collection, types and formats of data that were generated and collected, and their relationship to the project objectives. When it came to the data and metadata, it was important to respect the guiding principles to make it FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) as much as possible. It also defines the project data security and how the data will be disseminated, the entities and people responsible, its ethics and legal compliance. The EPISA project – Entity and Property Inference for Semantic Archives – treads an essential path in the national panorama towards the accessibility of the Portuguese cultural heritage and information in general. The purpose of the project is to create a new description model for archives and to promote the semiautomatic creation of metadata. Its main goal is to incorporate the national archives in the global network of semantic linked data. The specific deliverable will be a preliminary data management plan, which can be adjusted as needed.
