at the University of Lincoln
Part 1 of 2
Mansur Darlington20 January 2012
2 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
Purpose of Visit
• To provide an overview of Research Data
Management and what it will mean to
members of the School of Engineering at
Lincoln.

• Key Building Blocks for Research Data Management.
4 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
REDm-MED (Research Data Management for Mechanical Engineering Departments)
• JISCMRD Phase 2.
• 1st Nov 2011 – 31 May 2012
• To scope, specify, design and implement a
research data management approach suited
especially to the needs of the Department of
Mechanical Engineering.
• Will build upon the ERIM Project work,
• and on other recent work by the MRD
community.
• Complements Research360 Project.
5 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
The Aim of the REDm-MED Project
• To implement effective and practicalresearch data management where there is little or none,
• through the provision of:
– Procedures & Documentation,
– A Tool Set,
– Infrastructure,
• including development of the prototype RAIDmap tool.

MANAGING RESEARCH DATA
13 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
Why Manage Research Data?
• Because you will HAVE TO
• Because you might WANT TO
14 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
Needing to Manage Research Data
• Funders’ Data Management Policies
• Institutional Requirements
• FOI responses
• REF
• Publisher demands
15 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
UK Funders’ Project Data Management Requirements
16 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
Needing to Manage Research Data
• Funders’ Data Management Policies
• Institutional Requirements
• FOI responses
• Audit
• REF
• Publisher demands
17 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
Wanting to Manage Research Data
• Reduction in duplicated work.
• Inspiration for new/continuation research & funding.
• Basis for knowledge extraction from aggregated data.
• Greater transparency of research.
• Improved basis for validation.
• Obviating the need for re-collection and generation.
• Providing basis for reliable data citation.
• Increasing scholarly output.
18 Orbital DMP Meeting 20.01.12
Supporting Collaboration – reciprocal benefits
• Greater confidence in sharing data through better, more case-appropriate and more transparent security measures.
• Better access to new data or data hitherto undiscoverable.
• Reduction in data loss as a result of improvements in management throughout the data life cycle.
• Support of application for and defence of patents.
• Better understanding of good RDM practice.
• Greater clarity in IP issues.
