Abstract:
International recommendations, general principles, and policy documents on open science are highly inspirational, building general consensus and ideational policy frameworks. However, their operationalization requires practical and handy working tools for citizens, scientists and researchers. This is the case for RELIANCE digital assets, a suite of innovative and interconnected services integrated into EOSC- HUB and used by the EOSC scientific communities to support thematic and multidisciplinary research in Earth Science and beyond.
