Workshop: Digital Twins of the Ocean Interoperability
Start: Wednesday 29th May 2024
End: Thursday 30th May 2024
The purpose of the workshop is to gather current projects that are working with Digital Twins of the Ocean technologies for a joint discussion on interoperability concerns and solutions (technical, semantic, organisational, legal interoperability).
The invitation goes to current projects that are working with Digital Twins of the Ocean technologies, including those that are working on relating different types of data/models to Digital Twins (i.e. biodiversity data/models, socio-ecological semantic data/models etc.) and supporting federated observations/data infrastructures.
The focus of the workshop will be on how to plan for achieving interoperability between the results/operational infrastructures of the various projects and initiatives. A starting point for this will be based on the related posters and oral presentations that will be given during the three days of IMDIS 2024.
Each project is requested to prepare a short presentation on interoperability points related to data/model representations and APIs/services they will use/offer. The invitation includes the following areas/projects as well as other related projects:
- DTO (EDITO-INFRA/MODEL LAB, ILIAD, DITTO, DestinE, SatBaltyk … ++)
- Ocean BioDiversity data/models (DTO-BioFLow, MARCO-BOLO, OBAMA-NEXT, … ++)
- Socio-Ecological DTO data/models (SEADITO, SEADOT, ECOTWIN, SURIMI … ++)
- EOSC (Blue Cloud 2026, AquaINFRA, InterTwin, FAIR-Ease, ENVRI-FAIR, … ++)
- Ocean Data Spaces (EMODnet, CMEMS, SeaDataNet, Ocean Info Hub, AD4GD, … ++)
- … other DTO related projects …
The target is to identify and consider results presented for the various IMDIS sessions that could be useful for the Interoperability of Digital Twins of the Ocean.
- IMDIS 2024 session topics – oral and posters:
- INFRA: Marine environmental infrastructures for observation data
- PRODUCTS: Data products, information and knowledge
- SERVICES: Data services and tools in ocean science
- TECH: Technical developments for marine information and data management
Agenda
The workshop will occur in four segments.
