The Data Management Plan is the deliverable number D1.4 of the “Innovative and Sustainable Groundwater Management in the Mediterranean” Grant Agreement Number 1923 project. This document seeks to provide guidance on how to manage the data that will be collected and produced within the InTheMED project. Following the recommendations provided by the European Commission, this deliverable has been prepared considering the template of the “Guidelines on FAIR Data Management in Horizon 2020”, and it covers: Type, format and size of collected, processed and generated data. Handling of the data during and after the end of the project. Definition of the dissemination level of the data: open access or confidential. Methodologies and standards to be applied. Curation and preservation of the data during and after the end of the project. This Deliverable is the second version of the Data Management Plan (DMP) and an update of the one presented in March 2021. This updated version answers specific topics that remained unresolved in the first version. The DMP is considered to be a living document that is expected to evolve during the project. The DMP is considered a living document, meaning that it will be accurately modified and updated when significant changes occur, such as the production of new data, changes in consortium policies or changes in consortium composition and external factors. At least, there will be one more version at the project end.

This project is part of the PRIMA Programme supported by the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under Grant Agreement No 1923.
