The initial Data Management Plan (DMP) for the FLEXSHIP project, which is funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement number 101095863, is explained in this report. The purpose of the DMP is to provide an overview of all datasets collected, generated, and disseminated by the project and to define the data management policy used by the FLEXSHIP consortium for these datasets. The FLEXSHIP DMP indicates the status of the data that is collected, processed, or generated, the methodology and standards followed, whether and how this data will be shared and/or made open, and how it will be curated and preserved by the Consortium.
This includes guidelines on FAIR data management. The initial version of the DMP defines the general policy and approach to data management in FLEXSHIP, which handles data management related issues at both the administrative and technical level. Subsequently, the methodology for protection and protection schemes implemented in the project are shown.


Lastly, in this D8.3, the updated IP Data sets identified up to the 18th month of the project
are collected and reflected.


The DMP will be updated during the project’s lifespan. Subsequent versions will improve policy aspects and provide more detailed information on the datasets collected and produced by the FLEXSHIP project, throughout its whole execution time.

The report is confidential, though a comprehensive summary is shared here.
