About Data Management Plan

What is a data management plan?

A data management plan (DMP) is a written document that describes the data you expect to acquire or generate during the course of a research project. Many funding agencies require that grant proposals address how data will be managed and shared with other researchers. For example, the National Science Foundation now requires that all proposals for funding include a data management plan“...to stimulate new advances as quickly as possible and to allow prompt evaluation of the results.”
