About EPOS
EPOS, the European Plate Observing System, is a multidisciplinary, distributed research infrastructure that facilitates the integrated use of data, data products, and facilities from the solid Earth science community in Europe.
USERS
EPOS is creating an internationally recognised European research infrastructure that will open new horizons for European research in solid Earth science.
Services
The EPOS Delivery Framework can be defined as a truly international, federated framework encompassing the data and service provision integrated within the TCS and made interoperable with the central hub of the Integrated Core Services (ICS-C) the novel e-infrastructure for promoting FAIR data management.
Projects
EPOS is a beneficiary of several EU-funded projects, which promote the knowledge-sharing and cooperation between several Research Infrastructures and other international organisations
