10. DATA MANAGEMENT AND AVAILABILITY (revision expected 5/1/97)

All experiment participants will be required to contribute a final data product to the experiment data base. Those who choose not to contribute will still have access to the data when it has been quality controlled and published as a data report. Investigators with access to the preliminary data sets are not to redistribute the data. Before the experiment, all investigators will be asked to describe their contributions and to agree to these terms.

June 1997 - August 1997     Experiment
Sept. 1997 - Feb. 1998 Sub-team Data Processing and Analysis
March 1998 Workshop
March 1998 - August 1998 Team Data Quality Control
Sept. 1998 Publication and distribution of data (Version 1)
March 1999 General Distribution of a Final Data Report

A data management plan will be developed in the near future. An outline of the scope is included in Table 16.
