    METROFOOD-RI: Pilot services with physical, remote and virtual access

    No full text
    METROFOOD-RI (www.metrofood.eu) is an ESFRI research infrastructure, funded upon the EU H2020 METROFOOD-PP project for its Preparatory Phase, aiming to establish a new distributed European Research Infrastructure (RI) to promote scientific excellence and increase efficiency in food quality and food safety. It strives to provide and coordinate high-level metrological services on a European scale for researchers, laboratories, food inspection agencies and&nbsp;policymakers. As part of the preparatory phase towards the legal statute of ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium), a service portfolio is being set up along with its provision diagram. As a test for this model of service provision, three use cases have been defined that are representative of the different types of access that will be provided by METROFOOD-RI: physical access to a food pilot plant for demonstrating technical solutions and adaptations of food processing technology to minimize acrylamide in bakery products at the National Research &amp; Development Institute for Food Bio-resources (IBA,&nbsp;Romania). remote access to the transmission electron microscope facility for physicochemical characterization of nanoparticles in food (Sciensano,&nbsp;Belgium). virtual access to two e-services for open data use, mainly addressed to researchers, laboratories, food inspection agencies and policy&nbsp;makers: a search engine and database for agrifood reference materials and official&nbsp;methods an application programming interface (API) for a risk evaluation&nbsp;tool The use cases will help to evaluate the usability of the single access point of the research infrastructure and to fine-tune the access procedures and interfaces with users. This will support the elaboration of the final service chart of METROFOOD-RI including all the potential physical, electronical and integrated services that the infrastructure aims to provide to its&nbsp;users. The paper will give an overview and first evaluation of the use case service provision and provide an overview of the potential METROFOOD-RI service&nbsp;portfolio.</p
