FAQ
Why an ITINERIS HUB?
The ITINERIS HUB was created to provide a single access point to 22 Italian environmental research infrastructures, facilitating discovery, access and integration of resources for the national and international scientific community.
What resources can I discover in the ITINERIS HUB?
Le risorse disponibili comprendono una raccolta di conoscenze, dati, strumenti di analisi e servizi forniti dalle Infrastrutture di Ricerca (IR) italiane nel campo delle scienze ambientali per l’osservazione e lo studio dei processi nell’atmosfera, nel dominio marino, nella biosfera terrestre e nella geosfera.
What are the key components of the ITINERIS HUB?
The HUB integrates:
– ITINERIS Catalogue: Navigate a metadata catalogue for resources discovery.
– ITINERIS Access platform: Send applications to access datasets and services offered by RIs and get support for your scientific projects.
– ITINERIS metaData HUB: Explore metadata through a geospatial visualization tool and get access to the dataset and digital products offered by the different RIs.
– ITINERIS VRE (Virtual Research Environments): Use RI-generated knowledge through data flows, analysis tools, and your own data to address specific issues
– ITINERIS Training Centre: Discover a collection of courses, events, and training material.
– ITINERIS Dataset: Consult a collection of datasets and digital products produced by the different RIs.
– ITINERIS Terminological Service: A digital service that provides access to and management of controlled vocabularies, dictionaries, thesauri or ontologies to ensure consistent and interoperable terminology
Are elements of ITINERIS HUB free?
The resources are freely accessible under FAIR and open science principles.
How does the ITINERIS catalogue fit within the HUB?
The catalogue is the core component of the HUB, enabling standardized discovery of resources from multiple RIs through harmonised metadata.
What kind of resources are available within the ITINERIS catalogue?
Metadata of: Research infrastructure, provider, service, Dataset, Virtual Research Environment, Research product and training resource.
Who is provisioning of the ITINERIS catalogue?
The catalogue is provisioned by the ITINERIS community, coordinated by CNR, powered by D4SCIENCE and including major Italian research infrastructures in the environmental domain.
What security measures are implemented for the ITINERIS catalogue?
The ITINERIS catalogue implements secure authentication for role-based access control in compliance with GDPR for data protection.
How long will the ITINERIS HUB be available?
The HUB is designed as a long-term infrastructure, sustained by the ITINERIS community and aligned with European initiatives such as EOSC to ensure continuity.
How can the ITINERIS HUB help researchers?
It simplifies access to multidisciplinary environmental data and services, fosters collaboration across research infrastructures, and supports reproducible and FAIR research practices.
What kinds of research output can I find?
Datasets, scientific publications, software tools, workflows, services, and training resources across multiple environmental domains.
Can researchers deposit their research output in the ITINERIS HUB
Currently, the HUB aggregates and publishes resources from participating research infrastructures. Direct deposit by individual researchers may be enabled through collaboration with their institutions or research infrastructures.
How can RIs upload their resources on the ITINERIS Catalogue?
Research Infrastructures can publish resources via harvesting (e.g. through CKAN or DCAT-based catalogues) or by direct metadata submission, following the guidelines: Instructions for Onboarding Resources on the ITINERIS Catalogue
