Description
The objective of the HMC Data Professionals Survey 2024 is to gain insights into the perspectives, workflows and needs of research data professionals in the Helmholtz Association. The survey is part of HMC's mission to enhance the sustainable management of research data and to more closely align its services with the needs of data professionals at various Helmholtz centers. A comprehensive and anonymized questionnaire is used to collect data from participants across a range of Helmholtz research centers.
The objective of this poster is to present the findings of the survey and provide an overview of the current state of research data management within the Helmholtz Association. The objective of our analysis is to identify common themes and areas for improvement, which will provide a basis for the development of targeted support and resources for data professionals. The analysis will entail customizing the HIFIS-analysis framework, mapping free-text responses and iterating data representations in order to ensure an accurate and comprehensive understanding of the survey data.
The responses of the survey are analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods to gain a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing data professionals. The analysis will assist HMC in identifying gaps and needs related to metadata practices, training, resource allocation, and collaboration tools.
The results of this survey will be made available to the community to ensure transparency and encourage feedback from participants. Dissemination of these results will facilitate an ongoing dialogue with data experts about the future of metadata management, which will contribute to the advancement of data science and research in the Helmholtz Association.
In addition, please add 3 to 5 keywords.
