Creating data

Data organised and documented from the beginning are easier to analyse, verify, archive and publish.

  • Plan
    Set formats, names, versions, responsibilities and access rules before collection starts.
  • Document
    Keep instruments, code, derivations, procedures and decisions that explain the data.
  • Protect
    Separate identifiers, limit access and document transformations made for confidentiality.
