Abstract
This deliverable presents the second version of the data management action plan (DMP) and provides the general outline of the project policy for data management. The EO4EU DMP identifies the data types that will be used, collected and/or generated, and frames the overall guidelines regarding data collected and generated throughout the project implementation.
The DMP describes the format and support the data management life cycle of all the data collected and generated following the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) Data Principles, as defined in the “Guidelines to the Rules on Open Access to Scientific Publications [1] and Open Access to Research Data in Horizon 2020 [2]” and in the “Guidelines on FAIR Data Management in Horizon 2020 [3]”. This document will present the methodology and standards to be followed, in cases where data will be shared and/or made open, and how it will be curated and stored.
The strategy for the data management identifies and classifies respectively the data generated and ollected, along with their metadata to be used. Also, this document reports on the exploitation and availability of the aforementioned data/metadata, the required ethical and legal compliance issues, and the responsibilities in the implementation of the DMP.
The DMP is a living document that will be updated when important changes to the project occur, due to the inclusion of new data sets, changes in consortium policies or any other external factors. One last updated version is expected during the project lifetime, in month 36.
