Delivering data services to EOSC

Content provider

ExPaNDS is the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Photon and Neutron Data Service.

The ambitious ExPaNDS project is a collaboration between 10 national Photon and Neutron Research Infrastructures (PaN RIs) as well as EGI. The project aims to deliver standardised, interoperable, and integrated data sources and data analysis services for Photon and Neutron facilities.

Objectives

FAIR data principles

ExPaNDS’s ambition is to coordinate activities to enable national PaN RIs to make the majority of their data open following the FAIR principles; Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable.

Harmonising EOSC services

ExPaNDS will allow data to be tailored to the user’s needs, and will harmonise their efforts to migrate data analysis workflows to EOSC platforms, allowing them to be shared in a uniform way.

This wiki page on the workshop on how ExPaNDS is delivering its data services to PaNOSC and EOSC which took place on the 6th of April 2021 explains what the OAI-PMH is and how it can be implemented in SciCat and ICAT. It also covers what B2FIND is and what metadata usage can be done to better expose PaN data. Finally it provides an overview of what OpenAIRE is and offers.
