Iliad
The Iliad project builds on the assets resulting from two decades of investments in policies and infrastructures for the blue economy and aims at establishing an interoperable, data-intensive, and cost-effective Digital Twin of the Ocean (DTO).
It capitalises on the explosion of new data provided by many different earth sources, advanced computing infrastructures (cloud computing, High Performance Computing, Internet of Things, Big Data, social networking, and more) in an inclusive, virtual/augmented, and engaging fashion to address all Earth Data challenges.
The enabling technology of the ILIAD DTO will contribute to the implementation of the EU's Green Deal and Digital Strategy and to the achievement of the UN Ocean Decade's outcomes and Sustainable Development Goals.
