The roadmap towards an overarching data sharing infrastructure at Wageningen University & Research: Smart infrastructures for farm-generated data towards circular agriculture

This report describes the findings of an exploration of several research data infrastructures at WUR. The main goal is to develop a strategy for a common data infrastructure for all of WUR whilst also reusing and applying current state of the art data initiatives. To explore these infrastructures, we placed them against an framework for data sharing and connected them in specific use-cases. Additionally, interviews with WUR management, researchers, and data stewards were held to clarify the importance of sharing of data and the challenges involved in sharing it. All the findings were used to prepare a roadmap and recommendations for WUR to work towards a common data sharing infrastructure.
