This session hosts the iMarine clusters (biodiversity, geospatial, statistical, semantics) discussion. Each cluster presents the activities performed and showcases the prototypes implement so far. The scope of each session is to clarify the vision driving the definition of the cluster requirements and illustrates the foreseen exploitation of the resulting facilities in iMarine (who will exploit them, starting from when, …). The discussion will also clarify how to prioritize the facilities planned in the technical WPs to meet the clusters expectations.
