Thematics services are a fundamental part of the EOSC realisation as together with the core services they provide tools and applications that can be used by scientific communities to support their research workflow. EOSC-hub has involved thematic services from different domains from its very beginning with the aim to:
showcase integration scenarios and
make available via the EOSC portal services to support scientific communities.
EOSC-hub sees the contribution from nine thematic services covering different scientific disciplines that have achieved a high level of integration with EOSC: various levels of technical integration have been successfully achieved and at least one service from each thematic service has been made available via the EOSC Marketplace. In its own domain, each of the EOSC-hub thematic services is a success story for EOSC.

Great opportunity of knowing other institutions and their respective activities. Some service providers have been in contact to be integrated into the EOSC-hub Marketplace in order to gain visibility and get other extra benefits from being at this European platform. This is the case for example of ‘Glacier Lagoons of Sierra Nevada’, from the University of Granada, Spain. |
