Marine Environmental Indicators: Providing multi-source datasets to researchers and policymakers

Marine Environmental Indicators: Providing multi-source datasets to researchers and policymakers

04 Dec 2020

 

After the successful first webinar in June 2020, introducing the five Blue-Cloud real-life demonstrators, over the next months Blue-Cloud will present each one of them through individual virtual meetings. Experts from the partners involved will provide the most relevant details about the technical and conceptual issues that are being tackled thanks to the Blue-Cloud framework.

The third webinar in this series is scheduled on 4 December 2020 at 11:00 CET, it will focus on Marine Environmental Indicators, the demonstrator developed by the CMCC Foundation, in collaboration with IFREMER, Mercator Ocean International, the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI), and the University of Bergen.

This demonstrator will develop an online service, bringing together into the same framework the data, the computational resources, and the cloud-based technology, in order to support European and international stakeholders within the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, and for exploiting the Blue Economy. Upon the foreseen development in Blue-Cloud of innovative data management technologies and methodologies, the demonstrator will build a bridge between the science and the environmental agencies, responding to the urgent need of developing innovative flexible capability for both the scientific investigation of climate trends and the monitoring activities.
