LIGO Data Management Plan: June 2017

Document #:

LIGO-M1000066-v25

Document type:

M - Management or Policy

Abstract:

LIGO has prepared this data management plan in response to a request by the National Science Board to the National Science Foundation on the issue of making future LIGO data open to the broader research community and for future scientists. Our proposal calls for a phased approach to the release of LIGO data moving from the pre-detection era of today to the Advanced LIGO epoch of routine detections.
