Launch of FAIRiCube project

In July 1 2022, the Horizon project FAIRicube (F.A.I.R. information cube) will be launched.

The FAIRiCUBE project will pave the way for a crosscutting platform and framework for data ingestion, provision, analysis, processing, and dissemination, to unleash the potential of environmental, biodiversity and climate data through dedicated European data spaces.

In the project, focus will be on the development of tools that enable users who are not intimately familiar with the worlds of Earth Oberservation and machine learning to scope the requirements and costs of their desired analyses.

The Austrian Partner NHM Vienna will cubify its Biodiversity occurrence data and provide the basis for two specific use cases. One will contextualize primary data from physical museum objects with climatic, abiotic sensor data, and urbanization. The second use case is intended to prove postulated climatic and other influences on the genetic diversity of the model organism Drosophila.
