Many grants and programs are requiring a data management plan. This site gives some great advice on how to create a plan and to manage your data. "A data management plan will help you to properly manage your data for own use, not only to meet a funder requirement or enable data sharing in the future." The plan components may include:
- Description and purpose of the project
- Description of the data and how it will be collected
- Standards to be applied, especially the file formats and the metadata
- Plans for the short term data management and the long term data archiving
- Data access policies
- Responsibilities of, and people involved in, the data management
