Summary of 1st Community BDE SC5 Workshop [via BDE-Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and raw materials Community Group]

Location - Vertretung des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen bei der Europäischen
Union, Brussels
Date – June 15, 2015

The first BigDataEurope SC5 workshop was held with the intention to identify the
current as well the future Big Data challenges in the Climate domain. The
challenges and complexities faced during Big Data implementations in the area
were identified and discussed, while typical applications of Big Data
technologies were presented. Stakeholder requirements were collected to support
the design and realization of the required computational infrastructure that
will make use of the Lambda-Architecture. The development process will be
tightly aligned with the societal challenge needs to ensure seamless and
transparent integration of the proposed implementation in existing solutions.
The BigDataEurope platform will integrate mature, existing, open-source
components into a comprehensive software stack suitable for serving and
consuming interoperable data.

Key challenges identified in applying Big Data approaches to Climate Action were
the following:

 Data management tools and practices currently common in the domain and /or in
the participating organizations
 Problems in getting, processing, analysing and storing the data
 Identification of tasks using large (internal and/or external) datasets
 Discussion of use cases of interest
 Functional and non-functional requirements for the big data platform
 Identification of tools/systems/databases/resources -gaps applied
 Practical or technical restrictions that might impede access and processing of
the data
 Implementation of the Open Access to Research Data policy promoted by the EC to
all projects funded under H2020
 Legal concerns that could be encountered in the usage of (Big) Data management
solutions
 Identification of key roadblocks influencing policy requirements.
