13. tentative timeline

14. in this meeting we will focus on selected Topics from two (2) Work Programmes – European Research Infrastructures (from Excellence Science) – Information & Communication Technologies (from LEIT) they will serve as the pool from which we will chose Challenges to work with this talk: to give you a very brief intro to the selected Topics [not to discuss, just to inform]

15. Draft 18 September 2013

16. scientific data framework

17. relevant topics

19. INFRADEV 1-2014: Design Studies

23. Deadline: September 2 nd, 2014 design study for an e-infrastructure on food science(s)? – leading to a more permanent ESFRI structure (legal entity etc) several ESFRI e-infrastructures on plant science, forestry, etc – not sure if a food science proposal has been tried in the past – would be very relevant as a topic to other INFRA challenges as well (could mean that someone is already working on it) could be an interesting next step for the sustainability of agINFRA – if not subsumed by LifeWatch – if not continued as a Community data service proposal (not in this WP version though!) reflection & thoughts

24. EINFRA 1-2014: Big research data

27. Deadline: September 2 nd, 2014 topic (a) seems like potentially relevant I assume that only one project will be selected: big players will come out to play (EUDAT etc.) interesting, if we can convince that agriculture can be one of the targeted communities build on legacy of agINFRA reflection & thoughts

28. EINFRA 2-2014: eInfra for Open Access

33. Deadline: April 15 th, 2014 only one project will be selected: big players will come out to play (OpenAIRE etc.) interesting, if we can convince that agriculture is one of the core themes (where principal thematic repositories participate) build on legacy of agINFRA, VOA3R and AGRIS that created a thematic network of repositories reflection & thoughts

34. INFRASUPP 6-2014: International

38. Deadline: September 2 nd, 2014 interesting to link agINFRA with relevant infrastructures in USA, Canada, Russia, Australia, New Zealand – are there such infrastructures in these regions? – do we know contact people there? – who should lead such a CSA? reflection & thoughts

39. INFRASUPP 4-2015: Professions & skills

42. Deadline: January 1 st, 2015 very relevant to – Research Data Management interests – Capacity Building activities of all key stakeholders & relevant training programmes possibly only one small project of 2M to be funded needs good representation of key partners – plus a number of thematic pilots (such as agriculture) partnerships, communities and core curricula may be developed earlier than 2015 – e.g. in agINFRA & SemaGrow we will develop pilot curricula and training – e.g. UAH could pilot an online course reflection & thoughts

44. ICT LEIT WP - relevant topics

45. ICT 13 – 2014: Web entrepreneurship

48. Deadline: April 23 rd, 2014 Explore if thematic projects (or themes into projects) can be proposed Aim at a CSA that will help the creation and networking of start ups on agricultural data-powered apps/tech – link them to all the stakeholders of the agriculture/food value chain – help them understand challenges of the industries – connect them to potential customers reflection & thoughts

49. ICT 15 – 2014: Big Data Innovation & take-up

53. Deadline: April 23 rd, 2014 Collaborative projects in (a) – propose a pan-European open agriculture data incubator based on pilot activities of agINFRA & Agro-Know CSA for (b) – serve as a concrete agricultural and/or educational case study for the Big Data Aggregator Integrator reflection & thoughts

54. ICT 16 - 2015: Big Data - Research

58. Deadline: January 20 th, 2015 interesting industry-focused campaigns & challenges – to run pilot ones within agINFRA to serve as demonstrators to link to real, current societal challenges that can be backed up with open data see examples such as the Big Data Hackathon of London – http://bigdatahackathon.azurewebsites.net http://bigdatahackathon.azurewebsites.net – take advantage of Agro-Know & Data Science London collaboration reflection & thoughts

59. ICT 17 – 2014: Cracking language barrier

62. Deadline: April 23 rd, 2014 Focus particularly in pan-European & multilingual online services – textual data aggregators like GLN, AGRIS, … – online services like Organic.Edunet, openAGRIS, Org.ePrints, … Build on lessons learnt from Organic.Lingua PSP pilot – Especially recommendations during & after reviews – Use good language technology partners like CELI reflection & thoughts

63. Thank you – to be continued during brainstorming sessions!

64. supplementary material & previous versions

65. Topic 5: Community data services

69. OurFood proposal? – based on agINFRA practices & guidelines – using simpler & more modern infrastructure and technology Will be in 2015 – but is the main call/topic under which our agricultural data interoperability efforts may be aligned paving the way towards an agricultural research e- infrastructure (ERIC)? – http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm reflection & thoughts
