Research data refers to all data generated during the research process or resulting from it. Responsible management of research data is essential for the reproducibility of research, scientific progress, and the dissemination of scientific knowledge. For instance, documenting the context of origin and the tools used is necessary for making research data available and enabling its reuse.
