The EGU General Assembly 2025 brings together geoscientists from all over the world to one meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth, planetary, and space sciences. The EGU aims to provide a forum where scientists, especially early career researchers, can present their work and discuss their ideas with experts in all fields of geoscience.
IRISCC at EGU General Assembly 2025
The IRISCC project is excited to participate in the EGU General Assembly 2025, a premier international conference bringing together geoscience experts to discuss the latest advancements in research and innovation. As part of the ENVRI community, IRISCC will showcase its role in advancing environmental science through cutting-edge research infrastructure services.

Town Hall Meeting – Discover How to Access World-Class Research Facilities
28th April 2025, 19:00-20:00, ACV Center Room: N1
Session Title: How to Get Access to World-Class Facilities, Tools, and Data with Transnational and Virtual Access
IRISCC invites you to a Town Hall meeting where we will explore how Transnational Access (TA) and Virtual Access (VA) can unlock exciting research opportunities for geoscientists.
Ready to elevate your research? Join us at EGU 2025 for an interactive Town Hall session hosted by the IRISCC project, where you’ll discover how Transnational Access (TA) and Virtual Access (VA) can unlock free, cutting-edge resources for geoscience research. Learn how to access world-class facilities, datasets, and tools—on-site or remotely—and hear real success stories from researchers who’ve used these opportunities to push scientific boundaries. Whether you’re in the lab or in the field, this session will guide you through the access process, funding options, and collaborative potential across Europe’s top research infrastructures.

IRISCC Co-organised Training Session
Thu, 01 May, 19:00–20:00 (CEST) Room -2.82
Interoperability between datasets with regards to their different levels
Co-organized by ESSI2
Interdisciplinarity is becoming a common approach to solve socio-ecological problems, but datasets from different disciplines often lack interoperability. In this SC we will explore interoperability levels in the context of integrated research infrastructure services for the climate change crisis.
