D7.1 Open research data pilot – data management plan

The Open Research Data Pilots (ORDP) of the European Commission promote open access of the research data and publications generated by Horizon 2020 projects. This enable data to be reused by other researchers and all kind of stakeholders, since the goal is to ensure that third parties can freely access, mine, exploit, reproduce and disseminate data and publications. The strategy of ORDPs is usually described as “as open as possible, as closed as necessary", since it is acknowledged that not all data can be open. The ORDPs can be considered as experiments towards the development of Open Science, a movement that aims at making scientific and its dissemination transparent and accessible to all stakeholders. This approach works mainly by sharing all knowledge and tools developed through collaborative networks: publications, notebooks, data, hardware tools, processes, software and so on. This deliverable presents the strategy and templates for the management of data within the OpenInnoTrain project, its Data Management Plan (DMP), for the Coordinator, Beneficiaries and Secondees.
During the lifecycle of a project the generated data may evolve in terms of volume, type, speed, sources, analysis processes and so on. It is therefore important to consider a DMP as a dynamic framework that might change during the project.
