The Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) introduced its policy on Open Research Data (ORD) in 2017. This monitoring report gives an overview of the first experiences and provides an analysis of the adherence of researchers to the ORD policy. Data collected in this report come from the applications funded in the project funding scheme, some career funding schemes, and the Sinergia programme between October 2017 and December 2018. The report provides an analysis of the plausibility of the data management plans (DMPs), the requested costs for granting access to research data and the characteristics of the mentioned data repositories.
