4. EOSCpilot: High Level Aims
The EOSCpilot project will support the first phase in the development of
the EOSC. It will
Establish the governance framework for the EOSC and contribute to
the development of European open science policy and best practice;
Develop a number of demonstrators functioning as high-profile
pilots that integrate services and infrastructures to show
interoperability and its benefits in a number of scientific domains;
Engage with a broad range of stakeholders, crossing borders and
communities, to build the trust and skills required for adoption of an
open approach to scientific research.
(More detailed objectives later)
Scientific demonstrators
5. Science Demonstrators Objective.
To develop a number of Science Demonstrators in particular domains that
will show the relevance and usefulness of the EOSC Services and their enabling
of data reuse, and will drive the further development of the EOSC.
Services Objective
To create a number of EOSC pilot services that federate data, infrastructure
and services fostering multidisciplinary research across geographical borders
and across time (through data preservation)
Interoperability Objective
To define and implement specifications, interfaces, standards and processes
that enable and underpin interoperability and sharing of EOSC data and
infrastructures across disciplines and providers.

The science areas targeted in EOSCpilot have been covered as follows:
First five Science Demonstrators (pre-selected) (activity: 2017)
Environmental & Earth Sciences - ENVRI Radiative Forcing Integration to enable comparable
data access across multiple research communities by working on data integration and
harmonised access
High Energy Physics – DPHEP/WLCG: large-scale, long-term data preservation and re-use of
physics data through the deployment of HEP data in the EOSC open to other research
communities
Social Sciences – TEXTCROWD: Collaborative semantic enrichment of text-based datasets by
developing new software to enable a semantic enrichment of text sources and make it
available on the EOSC
Life Sciences - Pan-Cancer: Analyses & Cloud Computing within the EOSC to accelerate
genomic analysis on the EOSC and reuse solutions in other areas (e.g. for cardiovascular &
neuro-degenerative diseases)
Physics (including materials science): The photon-neutron community to improve the
community’s computing facilities by creating a virtual platform for all users (e.g., for users
with no storage facilities at their home institutes)

Third five Science Demonstrators (activity: 2018):
Generic Technology: Frictionless Data Exchange Across Research Data, Software and
Scientific Paper Repositories
Life Sciences – Genome Research - Bioimaging: Mining a large image repository to
extract new biological knowledge about human gene function.
Astro Sciences: VisIVO: Data Knowledge Visual Analytics Framework for Astrophysics
Earth Sciences – Hydrology: Switching on the EOSC for Reproducible Computational
Hydrology by FAIR-ifying eWaterCycle and SWITCH-ON.
Social Sciences and Humanities: VisualMedia: a service for sharing and visualizing
visual media files on the web

O1 Simplify access to a broad portfolio of products, resources and service provided by
the major pan-European and international organizations through an open and
integrated service catalogue.
O2 Remove fragmentation of service provisioning and access to high-quality digital
services in Europe and beyond through the technical integration and adoption of
standards for interoperability of compute, storage, data and software platforms.
O3 Consolidate e-Infrastructures by expanding capacity and capabilities and improving
service quality.
O4 Widen the access to services to all user groups including researchers, high-
education, business organizations and expand the user base.
O5 Provide a knowledge hub.
O6 Increase innovation capacity of Research e-Infrastructures.
