RDIM Research Data JCU Platform

Research Data JCU Platform

is an integrated data management platform which supports all stages of the Research (Data and Information) Asset Lifecycle.

The three main components of the platform include the:

  • Research Data Management Plan (RDMP)
  • Data Record(s)
  • Data Publication(s).

This platform helps to maximise the efficiency and integrity of research, increases research visibility and impact, assists with meeting compliance requirements for funders, publishers, the Australian  and the JCU Code.

RDMP: Your RDMP should be developed as early as possible in the research project and then amended as changes occur or new information becomes available.

  • Proposal stage: you may wish to attach a RDMP (PDF) when you apply for a project grant;
  • Commencement: from 2020 the ARC requires a detailed plan prior to commencement of the project;
  • HDR Confirmation of Candidature: candidates are required to complete a RDMP (it can and should be updated during the project) and discuss it with their Advisors prior to confirmation;
  • Anytime you need it for your research activity. An ideal time to start is when you begin thinking about what data your project will generate or use.

Data Record: During or after a project for any data associated with research outputs, including theses.

Data Publication: During or after a project, e.g. thesis/data chapters during the project or at completion.

Your data publication can be embargoed to allow for your traditional outputs to be published first.
