Planning management of data

Even before you start collecting or producing data, it’s good to plan how it will be handled throughout and after the project. Aspects to be considered include:

  • assess what ethical and legal aspects that are relevant to data management
  • determine whether the project involves collaboration with other research principals
  • ensure that relevant permits and agreements are in place
  • assess whether intellectual property rights need to be dealt with
  • classify information, estimate data volumes and plan for appropriate storage solution
  • estimate possible need for high-performance computing resources
  • expected costs for a project's data management are budgeted
  • a plan for long-term data retention.
