D3.5 Second report on mapping of EOSC prospective service providers and candidate services

This document is a deliverable of the EOSC-Nordic project supported by the European Commission under Horizon 2020. The deliverable is the work of Work Package 3 - Support to prospective EOSC service providers (WP3).

In this report, we used the infrastructure service mapping approach that we developed in D3.2. Our aim was to assess the existing services and support them to fulfil EOSC requirements and help with EOSC onboarding of services.
The services were analysed using the service inventory template developed in EOSC-Nordic as summarised in D3.2. We augmented this template by adding mapping criteria which help to analyse services in terms of cross-border consumption, cross-border collaboration, commercial usage, academic use and access policies. Furthermore, results of the assessment were summarised and analysed, allowing us to improve the overall service mapping process. We intend to disseminate our summarized findings and outcomes to a wider audience via the EOSC-Nordic web site.

This deliverable describes results of both the initial report and the additional mapping of EOSC prospective service providers and candidate services coming from the Nordic and Baltic countries. In order to do an additional discovery of services offered by national research infrastructure providers that participate in the EOSC-Nordic project, this deliverable adopts and extends the service inventory template developed for D3.2 2 to capture information about services. It provides a list of additional EOSC prospective service providers and candidate services and reports on the work done to integrate the first set of services and the result of this integration. 60 services from 8 countries/areas were captured.
