It is important to keep in mind that all research involves data, even if the data are not collected from scratch, for example, through measurement devices or surveys.<\/p>\n<h5>Data categories<\/h5>\n<p>The general description of data should be concise and may be presented in the form of a list or table. The data can, for example, be categorized as follows:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\n1. newly collected data (e.g. interviews, measurements)<br \/>\n2. existing data collected or compiled for the research project (e.g. archival materials, media data)<br \/>\n3. existing data used in the research (e.g. survey or measurement data produced in other research projects and reused in this project)<br \/>\n4. data produced during the research (e.g. analyses, code, datasets, lists)<br \/>\n5. administrative data (e.g. contracts, research permits, the data management plan)<br \/>\n6. research documentation and descriptive data (e.g. laboratory notebooks, diaries, notes).<\/p>\n<h5>Data format<\/h5>\n<p>It is recommended that data be stored in standard formats that are as open as possible and widely used withing the scientific community, so that they can be accessed and read by others in the future.<\/p>\n<h5>Size: storage space required<\/h5>\n<p>The size of the data is estimated in terms of file size (e.g. KB, MB, GB or TB). This estimate is needed to assess the required storage space. In the DMP, data size therefore refers to the size of the files, not, for example, to the number of interviewees or variables. Such details are described in the research plan.<\/p>\n<h5>Data quality: risk assessment<\/h5>\n<p>The general description explains how the consistency and quality of the data will be ensured. It should clarify how the data will be kept accurate and intact throughout the data lifecycle, so that the information content does not change when the data are copied, converted from one file format to another, analysed, or otherwise processed.<\/p>\n<h5>Practical tips<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Summerise the general description of your research data in a concise table.<\/li>\n<li>Refer to the numbering system used in the table in other parts of the DMP.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\t<div id=\"accordion-block_14cfc899703f3f2cd063930255fa5855\" class=\"accordions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"accordion accordion-js\">\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"accordion__button\" aria-controls=\"content-811\" aria-expanded=\"false\" id=\"accordion-control-811\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"accordion__heading\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDMP 2: Ethical and legal issues\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"accordion__content\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-control-811\" aria-hidden=\"true\" id=\"content-811\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The DMP should clarify the ethical and legal issues related to research data management, including how the data may be collected, processed, shared, and stored, by who, and for what purposes.

technical and administrative perspectives.<\/li>\n<li>Answer all questions that are relevant to your research data.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid overlap with the research plan, where you describe the research methods and analysis. In the DMP, you can refer to the research plan, and vice versa.<\/li>\n<li>A data management plan should not be treated as a simple administrative task for which standardised text is copied from template models without any real intention to implement the planned data management measures. Describe only the measures that are genuinely needed, for example to enable the data to be opened.<\/li>\n<li>If something is still unresolved or only at the planning stage, it is still worth mentioning it in the DMP. This shows that you are aware of the key data management measures and reminds both you and the entire research group of the issues that remain open.<\/li>\n<li>Careful planning of data management measures at the beginning of the project and during its development can help prevent later panic and frustration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<p><sup>(2026-07)<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/sharing-research-data\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\" class=\"wp-image-2715\" style=\"width: 20px\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/05\/app-1646214_1280-e1716882091700.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/05\/app-1646214_1280-e1716882091700.png 1280w, https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/05\/app-1646214_1280-e1716882091700-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/05\/app-1646214_1280-e1716882091700-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/05\/app-1646214_1280-e1716882091700-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/rdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/323\/2024\/05\/app-1646214_1280-e1716882091700-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><sub><strong>Previous: 5.
