A Data Management Plan (DMP) describes the type and scope of the research data generated in the project, how it will be stored safely during the lifetime of a project and made available after the project has ended.
NMBU recommends all students and employees to make use of:
- The DMP made available by the Norwegian Centre for Research Data (NSD) (DMP+) for all types of research data.
- ELIXIR Data Stewardship Wizard can be used for research data management within life sciences.
Other national and international systems to generate DMPs:
- National e-Infrastructure for Research Data (NIRD/Uninett Sigma 2) (easy DMP)
- FAIRDOM Data Management
- Digital Curation Senter - DMP online
