Data Management Plan Database

A Data Management Plan (DMP) describes how you will manage, store, secure, document, and share research data. DMPs can vary broadly across disciplines, methodologies, and data types. DMPs are a growing requirement for grants, and can also guide data practices for individuals and teams. DMP Assistant is a free webtool that guides you through drafting your DMP and the easiest way to start building a DMP. 

Our database gathers examples from across the world including DMPs from the Digital Research Alliance of Canada, National Institutes of Health (NIH), Qualitative DMP Competition, DataOne, Digital Curation Centre, Liber, the Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance, and UC San Diego Research Data Curation into one searchable, open-access platform.

University of Limoges; University of Vienna (PHAIDRA)
This DMP was created for the ATHOR project which aims to develop technologies in material engineering and numerical simulations, for the modeling of refractory linings. Data to be collected includes experimental data, literature reviews, and quantitative model results.
University of Montreal

This DMP aims to collect calculations, simulations, publications, presentations, and experimental design work. The goal of the project is to comprehend and control the quantum dynamics of light-induced excited states in condensed matter.

McMaster University
This DMP aims to collect info data, raw data, processed data, analyzed data, and report data. The goal of the project is to build a research and technology center to develop high-performance methods for biosensing and bioimaging.
Texas A&M University; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP outlines a plan for experimental testing, characterization, and simulation data for experiments with nickel-titanium shape memory alloys using a laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing process. This includes thermal and precipitates evolution physics based modelling.
Universidad Politécnica de Madrid; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP looks at light pollution samples acquired by photometers followed by subsequent analysis.
University of Waterloo; Digital Research Alliance of Canada

This DMP aims to collect text, binary (ASCII, binary), images, audio, etc. data to develop advanced research computing frameworks and infrastructure for application in various fields like quantum chemistry, biochemistry, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.

Cégep de Sherbrooke; Digital Research Alliance of Canada

This DMP aims to collect digital, tabular, and graphic data on plastic production parameters, environmental conditions, and inspectional measures among other factors to optimize the industrial extrusion process.

University of Waterloo; Digital Research Alliance of Canada
This DMP aims to collect photographs, Raman data, and lab data to develop new and efficient techniques for synthesizing two-dimensional perovskites at lower temperatures.
Bangor University
This DMP aims to collect  demographic data, numeric data, and raw and standardized score measurements. This data will aid with investigating the combined effectiveness of language and literacy interventions on reading outcomes in primary school children.
Durham University
This DMP aims to take a qualitative approach through the use of research interviews and solicited diaries. The data mentioned above will be used to investigate the manner in which LGBTQ language instructors navigate across the highly complex environment of Vietnamese language education.
McMaster University
This DMP aims to collect survey data, assessment data, interview data, audio recordings, transcriptions, document drafts, and data tables. This data will be used to create a set of design principles to empower university-level instructors to either incorporate generative AI tool use in assessments or to limit the impact of generative AI on the integrity of assessments.
MaX Consortium
This DMP was designed for the Centres of Excellence for HPC applications. It aims to collect various open-source first principles simulation codes.
MaX Consortium
This DMP was designed for the European Centre of Excellence in materials modeling, simulations and design. It aims to collect code and simulation data.
National Science Foundation (NSF)
This DMP was created by the NSF as a template for Engineering.
National Science Foundation (NSF)
This DMP was created by the NSF as a template for Materials Research.
UC San Diego; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This is a sample data management plan from UC San Diego which details a proposal to conduct research on nanoelectronics.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP aims to collect data from experiments "using a unique imaging system to probe how a polymeric jet injected into a surrounding Newtonian fluid becomes unstable."
