Research Data Management
Research Data Management (RDM) is a central component of data-intensive research. The RDM team provides DLR researchers with the appropriate tools and services to help them with both organisational and technical tasks.
Research Data Management includes:
- planning research data management
- taking into account the regulatory framework
- considering funding
- creating a data management plan
- operating and making an open data repository available
- ensuring quality management and recording metadata
- securing research data
- supporting long-term archiving
In principle, the responsibility for managing research data, especially those generated in projects and programmes, lies with the DLR institutes / facilities.
To fulfil the Research Data Management remit, DLR cooperates and networks with other Helmholtz centres (for example in the Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration project) and with the National Research Data Infrastructure (Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur; NFDI), as well as internationally with the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
