D2.7 - agrifoodTEF data space Y2

<p>This reports an update on the Y2 activities of the development of the AgrifoodTEF dataspace, a distributed collection of&nbsp;datasets created during the execution of testing and validation services, which will be amongst the assets the project&nbsp;will use for its sustainability plan.</p>
<p>The deliverable explores the key building blocks of Dataspaces, examines common technologies like Eclipse Dataspace&nbsp;Components (EDC), Pontus-X, and Gaia-X to establish secure and interoperable environments that encourage data&nbsp;sharing, while maintaining data sovereignty for data controllers/producers. It introduces the advantages of computeto-data approaches as additional data sovereignty guarantees. The report then focuses on the AgriFoodTEF Dataspace&nbsp;implementation, outlining onboarding procedures, digital wallet setup, data asset acquisition and consumption, data&nbsp;publishing and governance mechanisms, all needed enablers for the creation of a business viable asset. Finally, it&nbsp;presents some concrete use cases where some AgrifoodTEF Partners have started producing datasets expected to be&nbsp;valorised through a dataspace compliant implementation with the aim of fostering a data-driven agricultural&nbsp;transformation aligned with EU policies.</p>
