presentation at the first eROSA stakeholder workshop

1. 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

3. 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

The commissions view
▪ 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

Mapping under e-ROSA
Provide a detailed, comprehensive overview of the current
landscape 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 ….
