The need for data management plans that address robust data storage and data sharing protocols are critical for water research laboratories that collect data from field-based, lab-based and industrial-based data streams and encompass measurement tools based on the physical, chemical and biological state of water. The Centre for Water Resources Studies (CWRS) at Dalhousie University have made significant investments in its analytical equipment and as a result have strong research partnerships with many industries, academic researchers and government labs. Accordingly, the need to exchange data generated through CWRS projects with the various partners is very high. Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) are routinely used to aggregate data generated on different analytical instruments for the purposes of improved data management of water samples. This application seeks funding to invest in LIMS for the CWRS team to (i) improve industrial internships for research students engaged in the CREATE Program ASPIRE (ii) Enable better data transfer between water utilities, industry partners and Dr. Gagnon's team in the NSERC / Halifax Water Industrial Research Chair program and (iii) Foster new research collaboration offered through metagenomics and other data intensive measurements. Dr. Gagnon's team has the necessary research experience and trained personnel to quickly integrate the LIMS into the Clean Water Technology Laboratory (CWTL) and across research programs.

对于从现场、实验室和工业数据流中收集数据并包含基于水的物理、化学和生物状态的测量工具的水研究实验室来说，需要数据管理计划来解决强大的数据存储和数据共享协议是至关重要的。达尔豪西大学水资源研究中心对其分析设备进行了大量投资，因此与许多行业、学术研究人员和政府实验室建立了牢固的研究伙伴关系。因此，与各合作伙伴交换通过妇女和儿童权利方案项目产生的数据的需求非常大。实验室信息管理系统(LIMS)通常用于汇总不同分析仪器产生的数据，以改进对水样的数据管理。本申请寻求资金用于为CWRS团队投资LIMS，以(I)改善参与Create Program ASPIRE的研究生的行业实习机会，(Ii)使水务公司、行业合作伙伴和NSERC/Halifax水工业研究教席计划中的Gagnon博士团队之间能够更好地传输数据，以及(Iii)通过元基因组学和其他数据密集型措施促进新的研究合作。Gagnon博士的团队拥有必要的研究经验和训练有素的人员，可以迅速将LIMS整合到清洁水技术实验室(CWTL)和各种研究项目中。
