Figure 1 ∣. Diverse types of data sharing.

Figure 1 ∣

a ∣ In public sharing, researchers make data broadly available without restrictions on use. b ∣ In controlled-access data sharing, researchers place some conditions on access and re-use but ideally do not discriminate on the basis of individual projects or proposers. c ∣ Clique sharing occurs when researchers form consortia and share within the consortia but have very restrictive policies for external sharing, which hampers engagement and impact. d ∣ Sharing upon request offloads the burden for negotiating sharing procedures until there is demand, but when there are multiple requests this approach can become time consuming to manage.
