How to select a data repository

Answer a series of questions to identify the most appropriate repository for sharing your research data. This tool follows the NIH Data Management and Sharing Plan (DMSP) guidance framework — checking funder mandates and domain-specific repositories first, then institutional options, before recommending from the GREI generalist repositories.

Developed as part of the NIH DMSP Guidance Working Group project. Based on the GREI Repository Selection Flowchart (Barbosa et al., 2024) and NIH repository selection guidance.
