The phase of long-term management consists of:
- transferring data to a most suitable data format
- transferring data to an appropriate media
- making security copies and preserving the data
- collecting and creating of metadata and documentation
- preserving and protecting data
The researcher may use protocols/procedures for submission and archiving, standards and tools, as well as authorized data centres to advise him/her on long-term management of his/her research data.
In this phase of the research data lifecylce, the researchers need to ask him/herself whether research data from the study have a long-term value and should be preserved.
The questions that need to be resolved already in the data management planning phase and should now be finally realized, are:
- What data needs to be saved/destroyed due to a contract agreement, legal or other purposes?
- How to decide what data to preserve?
- What is the potential of the data for further use?
- How long should the data be preserved?
- What is the long-term managing plan of the research data? Where that is in which repository or archive will the research data be preserved?
- How will the data be stored and how will security copies be made after the project?
- How will access and security issues be resolved?
