WP 2: Specialization Tool (Month 1 – Month 24)

RBINS (Leader) (7 PM) (in-kind 7.5 PM), RMCA (10 PM) (in-kind 3 PM), CETAF (in-kind 3 PM), Meise BG (in-kind 1.5 PM), Belgian Biodiversity Platform (in-kind 0 PM), ULiège (in-kind 0.6 PM), UMons (in-kind 0.4 PM)
 

One task of Be.DiSSCo-FED will be to complement the specialization tool developed during DiSSCo Prepare with more and updated data from the partners (at Belgian and European level) and analyze all the specialization data gathered in the tool to define a clear specialization strategy for the DiSSCo infrastructure.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Workflow of the Specialization tool developed by RBINS in WP8 of DiSSCo Prepare

 

The associated research and development will focus on

a) the analysis of data related to the collections, the research fields, the scientific infrastructures and instruments, the exhibitions, and the trainings. Data will be made available on-line.

b) the integration of these data in dedicated visualization and decision tools. RBINS will collaborate with the Belgian institutions relevant for DiSSCo (with or without signed MoU) to validate the updated version of the Specialization tool. This task is related to task 2.2 of DiSSCo Transition: Identify means to sustainably collect, aggregate and analyse information from NNs.

 

T.2.1.

Collect of the data among Belgian institutions (Month 1 – Month 6)

 

RBINS (Leader) (1 PM) (in-kind 2 PM), RMCA (1 PM) (in-kind 1 PM), CETAF (In-kind 1 PM) MEISE BG (in-kind 0.5 PM), Belgian Biodiversity Platform (in-kind 0 PM), ULiège (in-kind 0.3 PM), UMons (in-kind 0.2 PM),

This task will collect all the information defined by the DiSSCo Prepare WP8 specialization among Belgian partners. It will use google forms with specific menu for the institutions and the NN.
 

D.2.1.1

Updated version of Specialization tool to gather the information (Month 3)

D.2.1.2

Collect of the information (Month 6)

 

 

T.2.2.

Analysis of the data and user requirements (Month 7 – Month 12)

 

RBINS (Leader) (3 PM) (in-kind 2 PM), RMCA (2 PM) (in-kind 1 PM), CETAF (in-kind 0.5 PM), Meise BG (in-kind 1 PM), Belgian Biodiversity Platform (in-kind 0 PM), ULiège (in-kind 0.2 PM), UMons (in-kind 0.1 PM)

This task will merge all the collected data in xls sheets and prepare a first analysis of the data as defined by the DiSSCo Prepare WP8 specialization. This phase will define the user stories about the specialization and provides the users requirements for T.2.3.
 

D.2.2.1

Analysis of the available data among Belgian Institutions (Month 10)

D.2.2.2

User requirements for the (semi)automated analysis tool (Month 12)

 

 

T.2.3

Development of the Specialization Graphical Dashboard (Month 7 – Month 18)

 

RBINS (1 PM) (in-kind 3 PM), RMCA (Leader) (6 PM) (in-kind 1 PM), CETAF (in-kind 0.5 PM), Meise BG (in-kind 0 PM), Belgian Biodiversity Platform (in-kind 0 PM), ULiège (in-kind 0 PM), UMons (in-kind 0 PM),

This task will index the collected data in several Elastic Search indexes and prepare a graphical interface with pre-defined figures corresponding to the user requirements. The development of the graphical interface will use Microsoft Power BI to align the technology with existing dashboard as the Digitization dashboard developed by the NHM London.

D.2.3.1

Specialization Dashboard (Month 18)

 

 

T.2.4

Integration of specialization data (Month 19 – Month 22)

 

RBINS (Leader) (1 PM) (in-kind 0.5 PM), RMCA (1 PM) (in-kind 0 PM), CETAF (in-kind 1 PM), Meise BG (in-kind 0 PM), Belgian Biodiversity Platform (in-kind 0 PM), ULiège (in-kind 0 PM), UMons (in-kind 0 PM)

This task will produce several views of the Specialization tool which can be embedded in the main DiSSCo/CETAF environment(s) using Iframes. This will allow the use of the specialization figures and the facetted interface in any Institution, NN or DiSSCo web site/portal even if the frameworks are different or evolve differently with time.

 

D.2.4.1

Integration with the institution website (Month 20)

D.2.4.2

Integration with the Digitization Dashboard (Month 22)

 

 

T.2.5

Users' validation (Month 20 – Month 24)

 

RBINS (Leader) (1 PM) (in-kind 0 PM), RMCA (1 PM) (in-kind 0 PM), CETAF (in-kind 1 PM), Meise BG (in-kind 0.5 PM), Belgian Biodiversity Platform (in-kind 0 PM), ULiège (in-kind 0.1 PM), UMons (in-kind 0.1 PM),

This task will validate the Specialization tools with partners and prepare the launch of the e-service for the DiSSCo community.

D.2.5.1

Users' validation (Month 21)  

D.2.5.2

Open to DiSSCo community (Month 24)
