Thomas Bartzanas talks about the importance of open data in the agri-food sector | OSFair2017 Workshop Workshop title: The roadmap to better food: using ICT an open data to overcome barriers in the agriculture value chain Workshop overview: The session will discuss infrastructures for open science in the agri-food domain. It will also discuss the issue and the importance of open data for agricultural and agri-food communities and science. Presentation abstract: Half of the European Union's land is farmed. This fact alone highlights the importance of farming for the EU's economy, employment, energy use and environment. The globalization of markets has increased the competitiveness whereas the consumers’ needs for healthy, safe and locally produced products highlighting the need for high quality production. According to Food Agriculture Organization (FAO) in the next 20 years world food production must increase by 50%, while 80% of that increase must come from intensification. However this vital and crucial sector for the European agriculture economy is a sector under pressure due to several challenges (world population, water shortage, climate change, use of pesticides and fertilizers, energy use, food safety). Agricultural production systems, and the policies and institutions that underpin global food security, are increasingly inadequate. Modern IT and data analysis tools are powerful and can really help meet the challenge of feeding a growing population in more resource-efficient and sustainable ways. Smart farming presents a viable solution to such problems. However, as smart machines, automation systems, robots and sensors crop up on farms and farm data grow in quantity and scope, farming processes will become increasingly data driven and data-enabled. Currently there are a lot of stakeholders involved in the data collection and management in agriculture (companies, organizations, public authorities, farmers). However the accessible on all these data is still questionable. In this context open data has become and should more widely used within the agricultural data environment. The context under which open data should be used and analyzed in agro-food sector is presented together with some so far success stories. When: DAY 1 - PARALLEL SESSION 1

Beyond typical research experimentation scenarios, there is a need for companies that wish to enhance their online data and analytics solutions to incorporate ways in which they can select, experiment, benchmark, parameterize and choose the version of a machine learning algorithm that seems to be most appropriate for their specific application context. BigDataGrapes was present at ISESS 2020 - 13th International Symposium on Environmental Software Systems held in Wageningen, NL. showcasing the capabilities of the project's big data experimentation platform

Natural Capital at Risk: The Top 100 Externalities of Business

Sustainable Brands

This report offers a high level perspective on the world’s biggest natural capital risks for business, investors and governments. To provide a business perspective, it presents natural capital risk in financial terms. In doing so, it finds that the world’s 100 biggest risks are costing the economy around $4.7 trillion per year in terms of the environmental and social costs of lost ecosystem services and pollution. The aim of the report is to provide insight into how companies and their investors can measure and manage natural capital impacts and to inspire further research and debate.

The Increasing Importance of Ecosystem Services by Pavan Sukhdev

SIANI

On 26 November, while visiting Sweden to accept the Gothenburg Award for Sustainable Development, Sukhdev spoke at a seminar about environmental services co-organized by SEI, the SEI-hosted Swedish International Agricultural Network Initiative (SIANI) and other partners. A seminar with the ‘green economics’ expert hosted by SEI, SIANI and partners focused on the role of ecosystem services in our economy and how to include their value in the financial systems we use.

GNU Health presentation at openSUSE conference 2018

Luis Falcon

GNU Health is a social project that provides a community-based, Free/Libre Health and Hospital Information System deployed in many countries around the globe. GNU Health combines Social Medicine and Primary healthcare principles with state of the art advances in bioinformatics and precision medicine, delivering a valuable framework for governments and Public Health institutions, as well as for academic and research organizations. In this presentation we will go through some of the existing and upcoming technologies behind GNU Health and their use in different scenarios. The GNU Health Federation to integrate large, heterogeneous health and research networks; The integration with OpenStreetMaps and the mobile application will be some of the topics. Finally, we will present the GNU Health embedded project, a joint effort with OpenSUSE, to use GNU Health in single-board devices such as the Raspberry Pi. We will go through the many benefits that this project brings to communities around the world, delivering Freedom and Equity in Healthcare, which is our ultimate goal.

Big & heterogeneous data flows in agri-food value chains

Slides of my talk at European Commission's Day on "Digitising agriculture and food value chains", November 17th 2017. Talking about the need to facilitate the flow of data in various value chains. Sharing our experience from a big and heterogeneous data vineyard pilot, as part of the H2020 Big Data Europe project. And describing our plans for extending this pilot to demonstrate big data flows in grapevine-powered value chains, as part of the upcoming H2020 Big Data Grapes project that we coordinate.
