Abstract

This study analyzes the current status of research data management at NST-affiliated government-funded research institutes for the purpose of promoting the sharing and use of research data, and based on this, suggests methods for establishing a research data sharing and management system. The survey on the status of research data management was conducted twice in 2022 and 2023 for a total of 20 research institutes. In addition, difficulties and areas that need to be improved in the management and sharing of research data were identified, and based on this, methods for establishing a research data sharing and management system were proposed by dividing them into policy aspects, system aspects, and linkage system construction aspects. In order to establish a research data sharing system, it would be desirable to prepare a policy basis and present contents such as the definition of research data, scope of application, contents of management, utilization method, and leading institutes. In addition, for systematic and unified research data management, it would be recommended that each institute will establish and manage a repository and management system. By linking this with DataON, the national research data platform, and providing one-stop services, the accessibility and usability of data will be improved.
