Area 1. Cross-Domain challenges / Data exchange across domains: researchers, technologist and policy makers perspectives
Presentation
Settlements and urban areas represent the cores of human activity and development. Besides climate change, urbanization represents one of the most relevant developments related to the human presence on the planet. Both global trends challenge our environmental, societal and economic development. In this context, the availability of and access to accurate, detailed and up-to-date information...

Area 3. Computing and Virtual Research Environments
Presentation
Supporting data analytics in climate research with respect to data access is a challenge due to increasing data volumes, especially for end users, as the whole climate data archive is expected to reach a volume of 30 Pb in 2018 and up to 2000 Pb in 2022. Several international and European initiatives have emerged and provide standalone solutions that offer potential for interoperability. The...

Area 3. Computing and Virtual Research Environments
Presentation
Seas and oceans are important drivers for the European economy and they need to be preserved and developed in a sustainable way. OPENCoastS provides on-demand coastal circulation forecasts systems that are useful in research and in many other areas of human activity. The forecast systems can be setup by the end-users for a given region of interest of the European Atlantic coast. They run daily...
