GENESI-DR projects goals

• To provide a base for (establishing) a world-wide
  e-infrastructure for Earth Science repositories
• To provide reliable, easy, effective, and
  operational access to a variety of data sources
  (space and non-space)?
• To harmonise operations at key Earth Science data
  repositories
• To demonstrate effective curation and prepare the
  frame for long term preservation
