7 Research data are not only generated in scientific projects. Artistic working processes also produce a wide variety of materials that should be documented, organised, preserved and, where appropriate, published. Examples of research and project data include:
8 \\• Sketches, drafts and notebooks
9 • Photographs, videos and audio recordings
10 • Interview material and transcripts
11 • Measurement data and experimental results
12 • Documentation of rehearsals, workshops or performances
13 • Digital models, software and programme code
14 • Archival materials and collection data
15 • Project reports, publications and exhibition materials
16 \\The Service Navigator helps you to organise these materials effectively throughout the entire life cycle of an artistic or scientific project.
17
18 This navigator comes in three phases:
19
20 == Enable - plan, fund & set-up your project ==
21
22 I develop a project idea and prepare my plan.
23 What should I be focusing on now?
24 \\• What data or materials will be generated during the project and how to organize them?
25 • What legal and ethical issues do I need to take into account?
26 • How do I handle personal data?
27 • What copyright and usage rights are relevant?
28 • How do I organise the storage of my data?
29 • Do I need a data management plan?
30 • What infrastructure and services are available to me?
