Data Policy and Planning
How is human capability in DIR developed? e.g. in the form of guidance or training services such as Doctoral Training Programmes or Centres; Summer schools; Workshops etc
Is there a centralised facility where researchers can find general information on RDM and DIR? If so, what form does this take? E.g. website, advisory service etc
Is guidance or training provided in the following areas? If so, is this on an ad-hoc basis or embedded within a course? To whom is such support directed e.g. graduates, PhD students, early researchers, established researchers, PIs, support staff
a) RDM (including management of private and sensitive data)
b) Maintenance of documentation and metadata (including semantics, ontologies etc)
c) Copyright and data licenses e.g. Creative Commons
d) Quality control, security, validity and integrity
e) Publication and sharing of research data (including human and automated processing)
f) Linking publications to research data
g) Making research data discoverable
h) Making research data reusable
i) Data referencing and citation
j) Data metrics and impact
k) Policy and planning e.g. data management, business models
l) Collaboration and communication e.g. engaging with other researchers, the public, the media
