DATA MANAGEMENT PLAN

In accordance with the European Commission's documents Horizon 2020, all European public scientific institutions should strive to share research data in the Open Access model. The National Science Center has introduced an annex to the application for project financing, in which you must include a summary Data Management Plan.

Such a document (DMP) should include information on:

  • the method of obtaining data
  • file formats
  • whether data will be shared/made open access
  • ways of short- and long-term data storage
  • legal and ethical aspects of research data management
  • infrastructure and other resources needed for data management


In order to create a Data Management Plan you may use the DMPTool.

National Science Center prepared detailed guidelines for the data management plans.
