Who is Argos for?

ARGOS is designed as a tool for inclusive use by researchers, students, data stewards, research support staff, funders, research communities and institutions. It can be used in the context of research projects’ conduct to comply with funders’ RDM requirements, as a tool in support of literacy programmes in academia or can be independently deployed to meet given stakeholder demands. Also, it is available in native languages, thanks to the help of OpenAIRE NOADs, which strengthens common understanding of all researchers involved in the DMP or other research plan writing process. By using ARGOS, researchers and students are able to create their DMPs and other research plans in collaboration with other colleagues, learn basic RDM concepts throughout the process and publish DMPs and other research plans as outputs in an open and FAIR manner, among other things by assigning DOIs and licenses and by maintaining DMPs and other research plans as living documents through versioning. At the same time, ARGOS can be configured and deployed by funders, institutions, research communities including their data stewards and research support staff. They can plug in their own services and/ or make use of OpenAIRE underlying services that ARGOS is built with ad-hoc.
