10. NSF DMP Requirements
From Grant Proposal Guidelines:
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

11. 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
– Discipline-specific
– Flexibility at the directorate and division levels
– Tailor implementation
Evaluation will vary with directorate, division, &
program officer
