11. How & where to share data?
■ Data journals eg.:
– Scientific Data (Nature)
– Biodiversity Data Journal
– GeoScience Data Journal
– Data in Brief (Elsevier)
– Journal of Open Archaeology Data
– Open Health Data
– Earth System Science Data
– Journal of Open Psychology
– Journal of Physical and Chemical Research Data

16. Do I need to share all my data?
■ NTU Research Data Policy: The FINAL
RESEARCH DATA from projects carried out at
NTU shall be made available for sharing (via the
NTU Data Repository) unless there are prior
formal agreements with external collaborators
and parties on non disclosure or proprietary use
of the data.

17. “What’s the
difference
between
working data
and final data?”
Working data:
• data that are currently being
examined and analysed
• may change over time as they
are being reviewed, refined,
revised, processed or added to
help the researcher find
answers to research questions
Final data:
• exists during last stage in the
data lifecycle where there’s no
more re-working and
manipulation of data
• necessary to document, support
and validate research findings

18. I have sensitive data. So, can I
be exempted from data sharing?
■ Sensitive data are data that can be used to IDENTIFY
AN INDIVIDUAL, SPECIES, OBJECT, OR LOCATION that
introduces a RISK OF DISCRIMINATION, HARM, OR
UNWANTED ATTENTION.
