The beta version of the Blue-Cloud Data Discovery and Access Service is online! Test this framework for finding, discovering and accessing marine environmental data and data products, built upon existing European marine data repositories, infrastructures and data services, and made possible thanks to the sharing and input of expertise and best practice from key actors in the European marine data space.

Blue-Cloud is one of ten innovative EU projects to build ocean observation systems that provide input for evidence-based management of the ocean and the Blue Economy, which have joined forces in the strong cluster ‘Nourishing Blue Economy and Sharing Ocean Knowledge’.
