Towards an e-infrastrucutre for open science in agriculture and food

eROSA has received funding from the European

Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation

programme under grant agreement No 730988

..towards an e-infrastructure for open

science for agriculture and food

Different views on infrastructure definition and mapping methods

It is based on and useful for a Community

It needs a business model and governance for sustainability

A technical backbone that easily can host a variety of services

a variety of services, useful for the community, interoperable, but not necessarily connected or dependent from each other

▪ European Open Science Cloud

(EOSC)▪ Integration and consolidation of e-

infrastructures

▪ Federation of existing research

infrastructures and scientific clouds

▪ Development of cloud-based

services for Open Science

▪ Connection of ESFRIs to the

EOSC

▪ European Data Infrastructure

(EDI)▪ Development and deployment of

large-scale European HPC, data

Mapping under e-ROSA

Provide a detailed, comprehensive overview of the currentlandscape related to data science in agriculture

Identify main stakeholders and existing resources within the e-ROSA scope that can support and benefit from the e-ROSA community-building and roadmap elaboration process

Tell a story : Diversity of data types and resources to tackle the challenges of the

agri-food science

Identify the gems : data, standards, services, expertise

Help to identify our commons ….
