The EOSC will offer 1.7 million European researchers and 70 million professionals a virtual environment for storage, management, analysis and re-use of research data, by federating existing scientific data infrastructures currently dispersed across disciplines and the EU Member States.
Launched by the European ministries for education, science and research in Vienna in November 2018, the Vienna Declaration recognises that such service will create opportunities for both public and private sectors, notably by intensifying reuse of public sector information while preserving data integrity, and ensuring access, transparency within and across borders.
