Abstract
Deliverable 5.1 provides a common baseline for the data collection of the SIMRA case studies with the aim of reducing biases in data collection, improve the quality of outcomes and limit the emergence of unforeseen risks. The data collection protocol consists of three main sections: (i) a general overview and guidance common to all the Case Studies; (ii) a Case Study specific section, including the Pioneer and Regular Case Studies; and (iii) Appendixes that support theoperationalisation of the data collection.
