Observational Data Management and Delivery Sample Clauses
The Observational Data Management and Delivery clause defines the responsibilities and procedures for handling, storing, and transferring observational data between parties. It typically outlines how data should be collected, maintained, and delivered, specifying formats, timelines, and any required standards for data integrity and security. This clause ensures that all parties have clear expectations regarding data accessibility and quality, thereby minimizing disputes and facilitating efficient project progress.
Observational Data Management and Delivery a. Data Sharing: All data compiled, collected, or created under this federal award must be provided to the Council on a yearly basis and be publicly visible and accessible in a timely manner, free of charge or at minimal cost to the user that is no more than the cost of distribution to the user, except where limited by law, regulation, policy, or national security requirements. Data are to be made available in a form that would permit further analysis or reuse, i.e., data must be encoded in a machine-readable format, using existing open format standards; and data must be sufficiently documented, using open metadata standards, to enable users to independently read and understand the data (for example, a PDF version of observational data is not a valid data delivery format). The public facing, anonymously accessible data location (internet URL address) of the data should support a service-oriented architecture to maximize sharing and reuse of structured data and be included in the Performance Report. Data should undergo quality control (QC) and a description of the QC process and results should be referenced in the metadata.
