Research Data

“Research data is defined as the recorded factual material commonly accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings, but not any of the following: preliminary analyses, drafts of scientific papers, plans for future research, peer reviews, or communications with colleagues. This 'recorded' material excludes physical objects (e.g., laboratory samples).

2 CFR 200.315 (e), continuing the definition from 2 CFR 215 (OMB Circular A-110)

Data Management Plan

Data Management Plan (DMP) is a formal document that describes the research data obtained during the intramural and extramural research, intellectual property rights, policies for access and sharing of the research data, policies for re-use, redistribution, derivatives, and plans for archiving and preservation of research data.

DoD Data Management Plan (DMP) is required for each new research activity

Is a part of the research project and/or grant proposal
Includes the description of anticipated publicly releasable and limited data sets and plans for retention and access
DMP should be submitted to DTIC at the beginning of the research project
Preservation data sets are evaluated by subject matter expert within the discipline
Excluded data from public release are national security, economic security, export control, proprietary information, personally identifiable information, and economic cost/benefit
