Agricultural Data Space: the METRIQA platform and a case study in the CODECS project

This work describes the ongoing design and devel- opment of the METRIQA platform, hosting the Italian agrifood data space. Both are key components that the Italian National Research Centre for Agricultural Technologies is putting forward in its activities. We present a high-level description of the platform, which is designed to provide web-like access to digital resources and services following an approach called Web of Agri-Food, to support the digital transformation of the sector in Italy. To show its potential, we also present a real case study demonstrating both the benefits and impacts of the proposed architecture, connecting stakeholders and authorities at different levels.
