Understanding the needs of each

role

Research project manager in an EU

institution that wants to submit a proposal in

H2020

Research project manager in an EU

institution that is running as project coordinator

an H2020 project

Knowledge/data manager at EU institutions

participating as project partner in H2020

projects27-mars-15www.big-data-europe.eu

Mappings to possible difficulties (1/2)

Difficulty to discover, track & monitor the

research publications that H2020 project

partners have published with project affiliation

Time consuming to prepare simple, practical

and customised guidelines for the project

partners and researchers on how to make the

publications compliant to the Open Access

policy27-mars-15www.big-data-europe.eu

Mappings to possible difficulties

(2/3)

Lack of expertise in a research team to

disseminate publications & data sets

through the thematic aggregator

Difficulty to connect the project web site with

the institutional repositories to be dynamically

updated with publications


Mappings to possible difficulties (3/3)

Lack of time to discover, understand and

disseminate continuously project

outcomes though all required channels,

such as agINFRA, OpenAIRE, CIARD

RING, GODAN etc.


what could we do?

…offer domain-specific Data Management support &

recommendations to running & upcoming H2020 projects?

…offer domain-specific support to EU agri-food research

institutions that have multiple open policies to comply with?

…facilitate aggregation, interlinking and dissemination of

metadata through agINFRA to all relevant channels (e.g.

OpenAIRE, GODAN)?

…organise agri-food specific workshops & webinars on the

implementation of open data policies?
