ExPaNDS had its kick-off meeting 11 Sept 2019 at DESY, Hamburg, aiming to start the project and the work within the tasks and to identify relationships, cooperation opportunities and interfaces to other projects, such as PaNOSC EOSC Synergy, EOSC Pillar, EOSC Nordic, NI4OS and other WPs.
The EOSC Photon and Neutron Data Service ExPaNDS’s ambition is to coordinate activities to enable national Photon and Neutron Research Infrastructures to make the majority of their data ‘open’ following the FAIR principles – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable – according to the user’s needs, and to harmonise their efforts to migrate their data analysis workflows to EOSC platforms enabling them to be shared in a uniform way.
