Abstract:
In March 2016, the GFZ was the first Helmholtz Center to publish “Guidelines for Research Data Management at the GFZ”. These fairly general guidelines continue to serve as a overarching document for the handling and sharing of research data at GFZ and may be supplemented by more detailed guidelines for specific data types, projects or research infrastructures. The guidelines are preceded by the GFZ's clear commitment to open science and the guidelines for good scientific practice, followed by statements on the scientific recognition of the provision of research data, its security and accessibility, as well as citability and licenses. With the subject-specific research data repository GFZ Data Services, the GFZ provides the geoscientific community with a research data infrastructure that supports the archiving of data, the exchange with cooperation partners, data publication and the long-term preservation of data.
