FAIR Wizard VS CopyTrans

The FAIR Wizard is a tool that helps researchers and data stewards create data management plans (DMPs) easily, efficiently, and in a FAIR manner.

Data stewards can easily capture the knowledge, including required project data and decisions in knowledge models that are then turned into per-project questionnaires to be filled by researchers. The questionnaires guide researchers through the process using recommendations, FAIR metrics indications, and only showing relevant questions based on previous answers.

Once the questionnaire is completed, a DMP can be easily generated using a selected template and output format. The document is then stored in FAIR Wizard for easy access and future reference. This is especially helpful because many funding agencies now require a DMP for their application process.

But the benefits of using FAIR Wizard go beyond just creating a DMP. Researchers also learn how to handle data correctly, make it FAIR, maintain it throughout the project, and curate it long-term. This intelligent, guided, and efficient approach to composing DMPs is useful for ELIXIR nodes, research institutions, and individual researchers alike.
