Introduction
The goal of the data access and sharing policies is to implement the Governance Model for secure and confidential access to resources and services, in a context where data sharing opportunities is exacerbated.
The development of data policies here focuses on meeting demands that exists in the EA-CoPCommunity of Practice. and build on the services provided by Infrastructure Policies.
Why Data Access and Sharing Policies?
As governing instruments, data access and sharing Policies are meant to set principles and boundaries which shall govern the in-and-out flow of data by the EA-CoPCommunity of Practice., data security and confidentiality aspects, collaborative work through data sharing, and publishing.
The policies aim to guarantee the integrity of all data populating iMarine and to facilitate the access and the utilization of data in cost effective ways.
Structure of the Policies
During the second iMarine Board Meeting (October 2012) it was agreed to start articulating the policies with the following structure:
- iMarine Terms of Use
- iMarine Privacy Policy
- iMarine Community Best Practices
In addition for practical uptake by stakeholders, Policies have to be translated into/extended with implementation guidelines and best practices. Their elaboration will in practice proceed through Hands-on work. See the Ecosystem Approach Community of Practice: iMarine Guidelines and Best Practices page.
During the transition phase while finalizing the policies, ad hoc Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) could be compiled for particular agreements among iMarine and specific users or data providers.
