dmptool: integration with other open science software
DESCRIPTION
Presented as a lightning talk at the Association for Psychological Science Pre-Conference Workshop: Open Source Software in Open Science. May 23, 2013TRANSCRIPT
DMPTOOL: INTEGRATION WITH OTHER OPEN SCIENCE SOFTWARE
Thursday, May 23, 2013
A document that describes what you will do with your data during your research
& after you complete your project
What is a data management plan?
From Flickr by spanaut
A natural fit with interests in open
science and reproducibility of
research.
Who requires a DMP?
Pretty soon….everyone.
DMP supplement may include:
1. the types of data, samples, physical collections, software, curriculum materials, and other materials to be produced in the course of the project
2. the standards to be used for data and metadata format and content (where existing standards are absent or deemed inadequate, this should be documented along with any proposed solutions or remedies)
3. policies for access and sharing including provisions for appropriate protection of privacy, confidentiality, security, intellectual property, or other rights or requirements
4. policies and provisions for re-use, re-distribution, and the production of derivatives
5. plans for archiving data, samples, and other research products, and for preservation of access to them
NSF DMP Requirements
From Grant Proposal Guidelines:
NSF’s Vision*
DMPs and their evaluation will grow & change over time (similar to broader impacts)
Peer review will determine next steps
Community-driven guidelines Different disciplines have different definitions of
acceptable data sharing Flexibility at the directorate and division levels Tailor implementation of DMP requirement
Evaluation will vary with directorate, division, & program officer
*UnofficiallyHelp from Jennifer Schopf, NSF
Challenge
Researchers don’t know the necessary things to meet these new requirements
Institutions are on the hook to ensure compliance
Proper compliance involves integration of many things (ie. Standards, policies, practices, infrastructure, etc.)
Huge funding at stake
DMPTool: Data management planning made EASIER
Data management is complex and requires a dialogue amongst many stakeholders
There’s a range of understanding and available support resources
DMPTool focus is on: simplifying and scaling the common parts, developing a community, and providing functionality and integration with
other tools to advance services when possible
Access
Added to campus single sign-on service
InCommon / Shibboleth Researchers use campus login

New Areas of Functionality in 2013
Granular modeling of
plan templates
Granular modeling of institutions
Role-based user
authorization
DMP life cycle management
Organizational planning activities
Enhanced search and
browse
Institutional branding
Search and reporting for
business intelligence
Advanced administrative
interface
Collaborative plan creation Open API
User stats
Observations: Constant growth in all aspects (good thing!) Always more users than plans = low repeats (bad
thing!)
