Examples

Worked examples

  • Is an instance

    A US NSF grant applicant generating a 2-page DMP via ezDMP's guided form.

  • Is an instance

Counter-examples

Looks similar, but isn't

  • Not an instance

    DMPRoadmap-based platforms (institutional rather than primarily funder-template-driven).

  • Not an instance

    A bespoke DMP written without tooling.

Editorial commentary

ezDMP was developed to provide a lightweight, funder-template-driven alternative to general-purpose DMP platforms, targeting researchers who need to satisfy a single funder's requirements quickly. It contributed to early RDA Common Standard interoperability testing.
