This is a website for an H2020 project which concluded in 2019 and established the core elements of EOSC. The project's results now live further in www.eosc-portal.eu and www.egi.eu

ICOS

ICOS is a pan-European research infrastructure for quantifying and understanding Europe’s greenhouse gas balance. Its mission is to collect high-quality observational data and to promote its use, e.g. to model greenhouse gas fluxes or to support verification of emission data. ICOS brings together more than 120 measurement stations across the atmosphere, ecosystem and marine domains.

Workplan

In the context of the EOSC-hub project, the competence centre will integrate the ICOS Carbon Portal and eLTER’s tools and data management system DEIMS with the project infrastructure.

The main goal is to prototype a platform to enable RI data portal users to:

  • Deploy RI data from long-term e-Infrastructure storage with the use of PIDs
  • Stage and couple ICOS RI and eLTER Data with HTC/Cloud computing resources
  • Use container compute service to process ICOS RI and eLTER datasets
  • Orchestrate containers in the EOSC-hub infrastructure based on data location and distribution
