D1.1 Data Management Plan

This Data Management Plan (DMP) defines the strategy for handling data generated and used throughout the lifecycle of the GRAPHIA project. The plan supports the project's overarching goals by ensuring the responsible, efficient and ethical management of various data types across all work packages. The DMP defines the types of data to be collected and describes their expected formats, sources and volumes. It provides a framework for storing, sharing and preserving data according to FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles and prioritises open access and long-term usability where possible. The document also defines a data management framework, specifying how responsibilities are distributed among project partners and how appropriate resources are allocated. In addition, the plan addresses data security by outlining general measures to protect information throughout its lifecycle. It defines expectations for secure storage, controlled access and responsible sharing of data, taking into account levels of sensitivity. Ethical issues are an integral part of the DMP. The plan establishes principles to ensure that all data involving people is collected and processed responsibly, in full compliance with legal obligations and institutional ethical standards. This DMP is a living document that will be revised as the project evolves, adapting to new types of data, emerging ethical issues and technological developments. It ensures that the data produced by GRAPHIA will make a significant contribution to future research, infrastructure development and open science. Funded by the European Union.
