The Data Policy of the Center is based on the PaNdata Data Policy which was a deliverable of the European FP7 project PaN-data Europe delivered in 2011 and updated to the recent standards of PaNOSC/ExPaNDS. The Data Policy defines the Center as the custodian of raw data and metadata. This means the RI will provide users with automatically collected metadata for all experiments carried out on its premises. The Data policy adheres to the FAIR Data Principles, which are a set of guiding principles in order to make data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.
