3 Journal Data Archiving Policy (JDAP) requires, as a condition for publication, that data supporting the results in the paper should be archived in an appropriate public archive Dryad ( ). Joint Data Archiving Policy (JDAP). 7 DMPs for Proposals Follow guidelines provided by granting agency, directorate, division, and solicitation Keep the plan clear, complete, and concise Refer back to the project proposal, if necessary Start early! Recheck requirements for changes 8 NSF Basic DMP Requirements 1. Types of data 2. Standards for data and metadata 3. Policies for sharing and protection 4. Provisions for re-use 5. Plans for preservation From the Grant Proposal Guide ( 9

4 Data Management Components Planning Data Metadata Storage & Backup Legal & Ethical Issues Preservation & Sharing 10 Data Include ALL data to be produced/used in project Explicitly match data types to format Consider open, widely-used formats for sharing/preservation Library of Congress Formats Recommendations 11 Examples of Open Formats CSV XML tar HTML PNG FLAC MKV Plain text epub LaTex JSON OpenDocument PDF/A 12

5 Metadata Provides contextual and descriptive information Aids in discovery Should use standards, if possible resources/metadatastandards 13 Storage & Backup Identify where data will be stored during the project Specify access and security restrictions Explain how data will be backed up What data will be backed up? Where? How often? Make it clear that you will maintain at least 3 copies of your data at all times 1 should be remote 14 Backup Copies Media Types Remote 15

6 Storage & Backup Options at UNL Departmental servers Box Personal computer External hard drives Holland Computing Center Nsave backup by ITS 16 Cloud Considerations Research data can be stored in the cloud Must be conscious of security, privacy, confidentiality, legal, and access issues HIPAA Export controls PII See box.unl.edu for details on allowable data 17 Ethical & Legal Considerations DMP must address whether there are any legal/ethical/ip considerations for data If human subjects, how will privacy be protected? Consider in terms of storage, access, and potential sharing State explicitly if not applicable 18

7 Preservation & Sharing Identify what data will be preserved and shared, when, where and for how long May be able to embargo data for a time (usually 1-2 years) Data repositories are encouraged for preservation/sharing Use re3data.org to search for repositories in your discipline Consider cost, longevity, audience Popular repositories include ICPSR, Dryad, and Figshare 19 Data identifiers Persistent identifiers assist in citation and long-term access Common systems include: DOI ARK URN PURL Message error 404 by Roberto Zingales, (CC BY 2.0) 20 Services at UNL Libraries Workshops Consultations UNL Data Repository & Registry 21
