Synthesis
from AIEPOS Strategy 2024–2028 outlines the vision, mission, and strategic objectives of the European Plate Observing System (EPOS) to advance solid Earth science research through open, interoperable, and sustainable data infrastructure.**
The strategy emphasizes seamless access to multidisciplinary scientific resources, fostering collaboration across academia, industry, and policymakers to address critical societal challenges like climate change, natural hazards, and sustainable georesource management. EPOS operates on a federated architecture, integrating 10 Thematic Core Services (TCS) and an Integrated Core Services (ICS) platform to ensure FAIR data principles and global interoperability.
Key priorities include enhancing service portfolios, expanding user communities, and promoting Open Science through AI-driven tools, Digital Twins, and participation in initiatives like the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). The strategy also highlights EPOS’s commitment to ethical data management, environmental sustainability, and global partnerships to strengthen its role in international geoscience research.
