Data Management Plan (DMP)

A data management plan is a research data management tool that describes how data will be handled during a research project and after the project has ended. The purpose is to evaluate different aspects of research data handling and management, including data collection and generation, processing, analysis, documentation, storage and sharing. The DMP ensures that the research data can be reused and understood in the future.
