  1. Collaborative Assessment of Research Data Infrastructure and Objectives (CARDIO) DCC Roadshow, Glasgow 24th June 2011

  2. Today’s Short Talk • Purpose • Intended Users • Structure • Benefits • Future Work

  3. Three Objectives • Evaluate “data management maturity” of “data contexts” large or small • Enable collaboration, so everyone can have a say in the process • Benchmarking against real world data

  4. Data Management Jargon? • A data context – a place where data is created and must be managed (e.g., department, school, project, funding stream, institution) • Maturity - how well can it/does it manage its data? • That’s dependent on: • Finances • Technology • Policy management • Organisational and individual will

  5. Three User Types • CARDIO Coordinators: those propelling the process, mediating between… • Infrastructural providers: providing services to support research data management • Researchers: interested in safeguarding their research data, but also defined by their responsibilities

  6. Three Conceptual “Legs” • Organisation: Policy, legality, transparency, mandate… • Resources: Staffing, finance, risk… • Technology: Servers, data validation, security… 3 leg stool model developed by University of Cornell

  7. 3 Critical Functions • Individually score a range of areas within each conceptual leg in terms of data management maturity • In collaboration, reach a collective organisational, departmental or project-wide consensus view • Plan, with published reports that include evidence, visualisations and future recommendations

  8. 3 Principal Benefits • Gets people talking in a structured workflow, highlighting misconceptions • Reassures about data management strengths and highlights areas where investment is best placed • Relates your own research data management to the wider world through shared evidence

  9. 3 of Our Future Plans • Use CARDIO as the basis for institutional ‘health checks’ in forthcoming UMF/DCC work • Extend and improve knowledge-base to incorporate all kinds of best practice • Promote the knowledge-base as a shareable web service

  10.
