This milestone will be followed by a deployment action, featuring a dedicated open call for proposals under the Digital Europe Programme.
The consortium recommended a decentralised approach that puts the interests of farmers at its core. It suggested constructing the data space under consideration from over 400 already existing data sharing initiatives mapped across European countries.
The AgriDataSpace project was designed to establish the groundwork for a Common European Agricultural data space (CEADS). It facilitates data sharing, processing, and analysis in a secured, trusted, transparent and responsible manner. This is to boost the sector’s performance and stimulate data-driven innovations.
The project involved 15 partners, including top research institutes, agriculture data intermediaries and industry associations from 10 countries that are deeply integrated in the EU data space ecosystem.
In close interaction with stakeholder groups and employing a participatory approach, the consortium mapped the current data space landscape, recording experiences with data sharing. They analysed and assessed governance and business models and evolving legislation, and defined a technical reference architecture. These elements were integrated into a roadmap that consolidates all necessary requirements and actions into a comprehensive strategy for implementing the Common European Agricultural Data Space.

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
