COBALT Data Management Plan

The Data Management Plan (DMP) for the COBALT project outlines a structured methodology for managing essential data obtained and created during the project, emphasizing the improvement of data accessibility and reusability. This plan is organised according to the Horizon Europe DMP format, which is relevant for projects handling research data, and complies with the FAIR guidelines and open access mandates stipulated by Horizon Europe. The document sets the data management principles, strategies, tools, types of data, ownership, and protocols for intellectual property and access. It details the methods for the collection, storage, access, distribution, safeguarding, retention, and disposal of data, aligning with the European Union's standards as outlined in both the Grant and Consortium Agreements. This plan provides a clear perspective on how the COBALT consortium means to fulfil data management, protection, and security obligations in the present phase of the project. In adherence to the EU Open Access policies, the COBALT project commits to providing unrestricted online access to its scientific outputs, thus fostering extensive dissemination and influence of its research outcomes. The commitment to open access for publishing papers and articles is confirmed in the agreements, ensuring that these materials are available and beneficial to external entities. Operating as a guide, the DMP of the COBALT project details diverse methodologies and policies for the handling of data throughout the lifespan of the project. It is an essential element that supports the project's primary aim, showcasing the consortium's dedication to practised data management and the facilitation of data accessibility both during and beyond the duration of the project.COBALT项目的数据管理计划（Data Management Plan, DMP）确立了一套结构化方法论，用于管理项目期间获取与生成的核心数据，重点提升数据的可访问性与可复用性。本计划严格遵循欧盟地平线欧洲（Horizon Europe）框架下的DMP规范制定，该规范适用于所有涉及研究数据的项目，同时符合地平线欧洲规定的FAIR原则（Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable）与开放获取要求。 本文件明确了数据管理的原则、策略、工具、数据类型、所有权归属，以及知识产权与数据访问相关的协议规范。其详细阐述了数据的采集、存储、访问、分发、保护、留存与处置流程，并与欧盟《资助协议》及《联盟协议》中规定的标准保持一致。 本计划清晰阐明了COBALT项目联盟在当前项目阶段履行数据管理、保护与安全义务的具体路径。遵循欧盟开放获取政策，COBALT项目承诺对其科研产出提供无限制在线访问权限，以此推动研究成果的广泛传播与影响力提升。相关协议中已明确项目在发表论文与期刊文章时的开放获取承诺，确保此类资料可被外部机构获取并从中获益。 作为项目实施的指导性文件，COBALT项目的DMP详细规定了项目全生命周期内数据处理的各类方法与政策。本计划是支撑项目核心目标的关键要素，彰显了项目联盟对规范化数据管理的践行承诺，以及在项目期间及项目结束后推动数据可访问性的决心。
