Open Science for the Ocean: meet Blue-Cloud Demonstrators Date: March 23, 2021
Place: , Online -
Description of the event:
Europe has developed an impressive marine observation, data-handling and sharing, modelling and forecasting capability. Moreover, EU Member State investments in marine data collection, sharing and processing infrastructures and operations generate huge amounts of information and marine knowledge are at the basis of these capabilities, contributing to a dynamic and diverse ecosystem.
This half-day stimulating workshop aims to demonstrate how the Blue-Cloud project is combining distributed marine data and computing resources with analytical tools to deliver services supporting marine research on better understanding & managing the many aspects of ocean sustainability and demonstrating the potential of open science in the marine domain.
This innovation potential will be explored through the five dedicated Blue-Cloud demonstrators, as Virtual Labs co-designed with high-level marine researchers and powered by the Blue-Cloud Platform. The workshop will map out technical innovations that the demos will contribute to achieve in multiple and interrelated contexts (such as marine research & science, the blue economy, the food sector, the environmental and climate change analysis, etc.).
The event will also share initial reflections on the Blue-Cloud Roadmap to 2030 for the future exploitation of Blue-Cloud assets, well embedded as a leading system in the wider marine community and as a component of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), which will call for contributions from the wider marine community in the coming months.
