The External Advisory Board (EAB) advises EOSCpilot on all aspects of the project, providing input on how the project fits in the broader landscape of initiatives related to the EOSC, for example, to ensure that outputs do not duplicate other initiatives but rather fit into identified gaps in provision, and how the outputs of the project could interact with other initiatives, infrastructures and services in Europe and beyond.
The EAB held its first meeting on 29th November 2017 in Brussels immediately following the first EOSC Stakeholders Forum. Discussion was focused around the following four questions:
- What do research communities need from an “Open Data Science Environment”?
- How can EOSC deliver integrated services that are relevant to community needs?
- What changes are needed in capability and practices?
- How should provision be overseen to maximize benefit?
The Report of first EOSCpilot External Advisory Board meeting summarises the discussion and highlights a number of recommendations that arose from it.
