The project aims at creating a production quality e-Infrastructure for addressing the needs of two major target disciplines: Environmental Monitoring and Fisheries and Aquaculture Resources Management. This e-Infrastructure will be obtained by deploying, progressively enriching and consolidating the ones built so far by the EGEE and DILIGENT projects. Through the new e- Infrastructure scientists of the addressed and other challenging areas will increasingly obtain more facilities for creating Virtual Research Environments (VREs). These VREs will be based on shared computation, storage, and generic service resources offered by EGEE and DILIGENT at a European level, as well as on data and domain-specific service resources offered by large international organizations, such as the European Space Agency, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, and the Consultative Group on International Agriculture Research. It is expected that the D4Science e-Infrastructure will have a multiplicative benefit to many scientific fields, and also act as a catalyst for the kind of cooperation and cross fertilization among multiple communities that is necessary for addressing many grand challenges of science and society

The project aims at creating a production quality e-Infrastructure for addressing the needs of two major target disciplines: Environmental Monitoring and Fisheries and Aquaculture Resources Management. This e-Infrastructure will be obtained by deploying, progressively enriching and consolidating the ones built so far by the EGEE and DILIGENT projects. Through the new e- Infrastructure scientists of the addressed and other challenging areas will increasingly obtain more facilities for creating Virtual Research Environments (VREs). These VREs will be based on shared computation, storage, and generic service resources offered by EGEE and DILIGENT at a European level, as well as on data and domain-specific service resources offered by large international organizations, such as the European Space Agency, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, and the Consultative Group on International Agriculture Research.
