The Project

eLTER EnRich will bridge the gap between the preparatory and operational phase of the eLTER ESFRI process, which was severely constrained by several adversarial force majeure factors since eLTER PPP and PLUS started in 2020.

Core objectives of eLTER EnRich

• Implementing a systems engineering approach to better manage the complexity of the distributed RI’s System Architecture design, and to support agile management and decision-making
• Implementing a baseline ´skeleton RI´ with firmly hosted initial core services in support of core user groups, as a starting point for extensions during the eLTER RI operational phase
• Establishing essential cyberinfrastructure components and extending service capabilities in close cooperation with European ENV-RIs
• Strengthening formalisation efforts for the eLTER ERIC
• Achieving solid and sustainable commitments from service hosts and future ERIC Members
• Seamlessly linking eLTER projects to eLTER ERIC operations, building capacity in expertise and human resources, and strengthening user engagement in the RI
