The document discusses Australasian involvement in international discussions around data management plans (DMPs). It summarizes several working groups and initiatives, including the DMP Common Standards working group which aims to develop a common data model for machine-readable DMPs. The Exposing Plans working group will develop use cases and a reference model to expose DMP information. It also discusses the need for common core requirements and domain-specific requirements in DMPs, and notes the Interdisciplinary Earth Data Alliance DMP tool which generates structured DMPs. The document asks what machine-readable DMPs could enable and encourages community involvement.

- 1. Australasian DMP IG involvement in international discussions International approaches to DMPs
- 2. RD-A Plenary 10 - Montreal IG Active DMPs & IG Domain Repositories meeting 20 September 2017
- 3. Lightning talks • DMP Common Standards WG case statement (Aust. co-chair – Peter Neish) https://www.rd-alliance.org/group/dmp-common-standards-wg/case-statement/rda-wg-dmp-common-standards-case- statement • Exposing DMPs WG case statement (Aust. co-chair – Kathryn Unsworth) https://www.rd-alliance.org/group/exposing-data-management-plans-wg/case-statement/exposing-data-management-plans- wg-case • RDM Protocols - Domain Protocols for Research Data Management – applicable to DMPs • Interdisciplinary Earth Data Alliance (IEDA) DMP project – NSF funded - EAGER • Australian Data Management Records • Australian DLCF • FAIRsharing.org resources for DMPs – Oxford Uni led initiative [Standards, Policies and Databases] • DMPRoadmap project • Force11 FAIR DMPs group https://www.rd-alliance.org/rda10-active-dmp-domain- repositories-joint-session
- 4. DMP Common Standards - Outputs • Common data model for machine-actionable DMPs • to model information from standard DMPs • NOT a template • NOT a questionnaire • modular design • core set of elements • domain specific extensions • Reference implementations • ready to use models • JSON, XML, RDF, etc. • Guidelines for adoption of the common data model • requirements for supporting systems • pilot studies www.rd-alliance.org - @resdatall Status: Recognised & Endorsed
- 5. Exposing Plans RDA Working Group Case statement sets out work plan – being finalised so it can begin by next plenary – covering 18 month period Also work with the FORCE11 FAIR DMP Group and other initiatives Use case catalogue • Use case actors, roles and goals • Scenarios to identify main sequence • Identify machine- actionable inputs/ outputs • Case studies – exemplifying benefits Use case consultation • Drawn from 8 headings in Simms et al IDCC17 workshop report • Survey on benefits and risks (DMPonline & DMPtool users) • Walkthroughs of examples Reference model • Components – systems as actors in use cases • Workflows • Recommendations and guidelines • Implementing FAIR DMP Principles Status: In Group Revisions
- 6. Common core and domain specific requirements for DMP’s Domain specific requirements Common Core RDM requirements: Data Management Plans for individual research projects Data description and collection / reuse of existing data Documentation and data quality Storage and backup Ethics and legal compliance, codes of conduct Data sharing and long term preservation Timeframe of data sharing Social Sciences Humanities Life Sciences Natural Sciences Institutional variations? Domain Repositories IG Status: Recognised & Endorsed
- 7. IEDA DMP Tool • Released in Jan 2011 when NSF started to require DMP • Developed around the needs of researchers in GEO, but used across many domains • Set of web forms that generate structured DMPs organized by research products • Suggests repositories based on product/data type • Dashboard for researchers to manage their DMPs (e.g. edit for re-use)
- 9. What do we want machine-actionable DMPs to enable? 1. Researchers to manage their own data, discover & reuse other’s data 2. Service providers to plan resources 3. Institutions to provide effective services 4. Funders to monitor grants What else could we add to this list?
- 10. It’s really important for us as a community to get involved! Local DMP IG
Editor's Notes
- Two new WG case statements Project-based presentations that address the themes, standards, prototypes, etc An update on related working group activities and how we can complement: Force11 FAIR DMPs
- Can wider exposure of DMPs better connect research data from production to preservation? Other initiatives - Storage Service Definition WG We agreed to work with this group towards a case study around fulfilling storage service requirements from DMPs. More precision on the schedule with respect to the DMP Common Standards WG. We propose to work up a joint list of use cases, together with the main stakeholder groups involved, and the DMP elements that should be machine readable to fulfil the use case . This would start asap (and unofficially on our part, until we are approved). 2. Clarify the nature of the work with the QoS-Data LC WG This has yet been approved but is being renamed Storage Service Definition. We agreed to work with this group towards a case study around fulfilling storage service requirements from DMPs. This has still to be confirmed and scheduled. 3. Commit to updating our RDA group page with results of community interaction via non-RDA media . Easy one! Broaden membership to include more people from non-English speaking countries I’m happy to say we have been steadily growing and have new members in this category. But we do need more. Please do what you can to encourage others to join. 4. For impact, expand the survey to focus more broadly on the suitability of outcomes for adoption. Needs further discussion and re-wording on the survey design. Involve other publishers if possible. Co-chairs have made some direct contacts. We are of course open to any publisher interested in making DMPs available.
- The domain “blocks” can be more refined according to disciplinary demands.
- Interdisciplinary Earth Data Alliance As far as I can understand this work was funded through an NSF EAGER grant and was triggered by a couple of studies that highlighted that researchers exhibit a striking amount of variability in their understanding and application of important data management-related concepts like documentation (e.g., metadata), data reuse, and long-term preservation [15–17]. Furthermore, there appears to be no significant difference between how the DMPs of funded versus unfunded applications describe practices related to data storage and sharing [18–19]. Taken together, this research suggests that, while the current suite of DMP-related tools has enabled researchers to comply with DMP mandates, they have had a limited effect on achieving the goals of those mandates.
- These were the outcomes listed for the meeting, but… Institutions can have oversight of unique and significant data assets generated by their researchers Funders, institutions and infrastructure providers are able to mine DMPs to understand and report on current practices to inform the development of new services and resources, and improvement of existing services and resources
- Even though we currently don’t have funder mandates for DMPs – we do have researchers who work collaboratively on international research projects – many of these projects are funded by agencies who mandate DMP completion, so in support of our Australian and NZ research communities we need to have a voice in the shaping of new data management planning tools.
