A "template" refers to a structured form or set of guidelines designed to assist researchers in creating Data Management Plans (DMPs) for specific research outputs. These templates are typically customized to meet the specific requirements of different funding bodies, research disciplines, or institutional policies. Each template includes predefined sections and prompts that guide the user through the necessary components of a DMP, such as data collection methods, storage solutions, data sharing plans, and long-term preservation strategies. Templates simplify the DMP creation process by ensuring that all essential aspects of data management are addressed, helping researchers produce comprehensive and compliant plans.
