8. Progresses so far Outreach 2 iMarine training courses organized in France as part of the Master in Océanographie Environnements Marins (OEM), Dec 2013, UPMC - the Observatoire Océanologique de Villefranche sur mer 66 students trained iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

9. Outcomes exploitation: IRD IRD We want to keep on working on indicators and related processes sharing by using common WPS servers with our partners. The ability to use iMarine infrastucture to host and run these processes would be helpfull as the administration of such tools (with sufficient machine resources) remains difficult for organizations like ours. Ecoscope will make a better use of ontologies by integrating iMarine TLO results, by enriching the content of the underlying knowledge base and exposing its content through SPARQL enpoints (set up during iMarine). Regarding fisheries data and iMarine board meetings outcomes, we have strong expectations regarding the adoption of a new european standard for scientific fisheries data (e.g. Fishframe / SDEF data format from ICES regional database) which could be part of FLUX standard promoted by DG-MARE. iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

10. Outcomes exploitation: FIN FIN Using the FAO FishFinder for a list of fishes of the Aeagean Sea common to Turkey and Greece (and another one for Cyprus for the same reason). Integrating BiOnym in the FishBase website Integrating BiOnym in the synchronization tools between FishBase and CofF (work on bimonthly regular basis). Exploration for work between FishBase and WoRMS. Integrating BiOnym in the synchronization of SeaLifeBase from CoL/WoRMS (work on bimonthly regular basis). Possible use of the infrastructure as the social network for FIN. iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

11. Outcomes exploitation: FIN FORTH As regards the Top Level Ontology MarineTLO: Continuation in the context of LifeWatch. The experience from designing, building and reconstructing a semantic warehouse is a useful experience for ISL. * MatWare: the tool for automating the process of constructing semantic warehouses has been evolved in the context of iMarine. * The Connectivity Metrics that were developed in the context of iMarine for quantifying the connectivity of a semantic warehouse are now tough in the the graduate course "CS561 Web Data Management" of the Computer Science Department, University of Crete. * X-Search: The use case of iMarine revealed various interesting topics for the PhD research of Pavlos Fafalios, as well as for the activities of the ongoing COST Action MUMIA. iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

12. Outcomes exploitation: ENG ENG Host an instance of the gCUBE platform on ENG premises Customise the gCUBE services for several communities Host an instance of the iMarine VREs to serve interested communities on a pay-per-use base iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

13. Outcomes exploitation: NKUA NKUA NKUA envisage that the final outcome will be a complete solution for Enterprise Search that can be used in several domains, hopefully primarily from organizations in the iMarine ecosystem. iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

14. Outcomes exploitation: UNESCO UNESCO UNESCO will promote Trendylyzer and hope many scientists can exploit that tool to perform analyses on OBIS. VME VRE is definitely an important iMarine outcome that will continue and where UNESCO-IOC/OBIS can contribute to. iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

15. Outcomes exploitation: CRIA CRIA The BiOnym product could be used in several domains, with some adjustments. CRIAs team is analysis the deployment of BiOnym as a generic webservice. iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)

16. Outcomes exploitation Any other? iMarine Board, 25-26 March 2013, FAO (Rome)
