Project objective:<\/strong>
\nTo provide Latvian researchers with secure, modern, and convenient access to and sharing of well-managed research data; access to data processing tools and digital research services; to ensure Latvia\u2019s integration into the European Research Area; to promote interdisciplinary and international collaboration; to leverage the potential of big data and artificial intelligence by establishing and implementing a national EOSC node and shared services for data use.<\/p>\n

Main project activities:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Development, implementation, and operation of the EOSC national node governance and interoperability platform, including connection to the EU EOSC node and solutions compliant with federation rules;<\/li>\n
  2. Development, implementation, and operation of the EOSC national node network solution, including adaptation, renovation, and reconstruction of premises for installation of network equipment and hardware;<\/li>\n
  3. Development, implementation, and operation of management and security services, authentication and authorization infrastructure, and cybersecurity compliance and services;<\/li>\n
  4. Development, implementation, and operation of FAIR-based digital research data services (including platforms for sharing and publishing data and related digital resources and tools, repositories, secure data processing environments, data processing tools and software, data-driven research management services, and secure storage and computing resources);<\/li>\n
  5. Development, implementation, and operation of service management, discovery, and collaboration environments (user and administrator environments);<\/li>\n
  6. Establishment of a system for maintenance, governance, development, and support of the EOSC national node, including monitoring, support services, governance and development functions, and cooperation procedures among research organizations;<\/li>\n
  7. Capacity building for personnel involved in implementation, development, and management, including training and awareness activities;<\/li>\n
  8. Project management and implementation;<\/li>\n
  9. Communication and visual identity measures.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    National indicators to be achieved:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. One secure national research and academic data transmission network established by 1 April 2026;<\/li>\n
    2. At least 26 institutional users connected to the network by 30 October 2026;<\/li>\n
    3. At least 3 fully functional governance and security services available by 31 March 2029;<\/li>\n
    4. At least 5 fully functional data usage services available by 31 March 2029;<\/li>\n
    5. One fully operational EOSC national node (including network, security, data services, management, discovery, and secure storage\/processing environment) established by 30 November 2029;<\/li>\n
    6. At least 26 institutional users of the node and its services by 30 November 2029.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Project implementation:<\/strong>
      \nThe project is implemented by the association Higher Education and Science Information Technology Shared Service Centre in cooperation with the universities: University of Latvia, Riga Technical University, Riga Stradi\u0146\u0161 University, and Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies.<\/p>\n<\/div>
