The document outlines the objectives and activities of the Big Data Europe H2020 project, which aims to integrate big data, software, and communities to address societal challenges in Europe. It focuses on demonstrating the societal value of big data across various domains, including health, agriculture, energy, and climate. Specifically, the document details a pilot project in viticulture that aims to support advanced data discovery and visualization from heterogeneous data sources.

Pilot focus area:
Viticulture
(from the Latin word for vine)
is the science, production,
and study of grapes.
It deals with the series of
events that occur in the vineyard.

11. SC2 Pilot - Objectives
 Title: “Supporting advanced crop data discovery,
processing, combining and visualization from
distributed and heterogeneous data repositories”
 Front-end demonstrator: Vitis on Grape Variety Data
 Pilot specific to crop diversity
 Scope: Aggregating and visualizing experimental data on
grape variety identification
o Support advanced grape variety data discovery, processing,
combining and visualization
o Customization required over generic service

12. SC2 – Components/Architecture

13. SC2 – Data Used
◎ AGRIS dataset (extracted publications with fulltext access on
viticulture)
◎ Datasets from the Agricultural University of Athens (raw, processed)
◎ Measurements
◎ Statistical analysis (binary/numerical tables, dendrograms etc.)
◎ Open Access Ontologies (AGROVOC, geonames, OIV descriptors,
Grape Varieties)
◎ Grape varieties (photos, descriptions, tables, characteristics,
geotagging, origin etc.)
◎ Experimental vineyards (photos, coordinates, soil information,
orientation, geolocation etc.)
◎ Field data (plant sampling, photos, measurements, geotagging, sensors
application and sensor data etc. )
◎ Maps
