DestinE Data Portfolio 

The DestinE Data Portfolio is tailored to user needs and composed of federated data, DestinE Digital Twins data and DestinE user generated data with a specified and agreed lifecycle.
The DestinE Data Lake implements and provides access to this data catalogue following DestinE Access and Data governance through an HDA interface.
The Data Portfolio grows along DestinE lifecycle.

DestinE Digital Twins

DestinE Digital Twins set up an Earth System simulation capability, that enables assessment of the implications of climate change and the impacts of extreme events, from global to local scales where these impacts are observed.
The Digital Twins thereby complement existing prediction capabilities, support adaptation policies, and the implementation of the Green Deal.
The Digital Twin high-resolution Earth System simulations and the handling of their large data volumes are enabled by a unified software infrastructure, the Digital Twin Engine, and by the EuroHPC world-class supercomputers.

Accessing Digital Twins data through the DestinE Platform

The following services provide access to DestinE Digital Twins data through different APIs and in different formats. The access to DestinE Digital Twins data is currently restricted to users with an approved “Upgraded Access” (more information can be found here after login)

Data Cache Management

The Data Cache Management Service (DCMS) is a local storage on the DestinE Platform for frequently used data, flexible to be adapted to user needs. It contains a subset of DestinE Digital Twins data in ZARR format and lat-long projection.

DestinEStreamer

The DestinE Streamer service provides optimized data access through advanced compression and access techniques. Among others, it provides access to DestinE Digital Twins data retrieved from the DCMS.

EDEN

The EDEN service is a service providing access to a variety of datasets. It includes a direct interface to the HAD service to access native DestinE Digital Twins data.

HDA

The Harmonised Data Access (HDA) is a service offering a STAC API allowing users to browse through the wide variety of data made available in the DestinE Data Portfolio, including the native DestinE Digital Twins data.

Polytope

The Polytope service is a service providing access to the full data portfolio of native DestinE Digital Twins data. These native data are shared in healpix projection and in the form of hypercubes.

SesamEO

The SesameEO service is a service providing a direct interface to different data access services making heterogeneous data easily accessible. It includes sources such as the HDA, to retrieve native DestinE Digital Twins data, the local Cache A of DestinE Platform, as well as Copernicus or Eurostat.
