OnePlanet Research Center introduces OpenPlanet; An accessible, digital environment for entrepreneurs and organisations in health,
agriculture and food
Imagine if there was one open, secure data and application environment for companies and organizations working in the fields of sustainable agriculture, food and health?
OpenPlanet is an accessible digital ecosystem for entrepreneurs and organizations in health, sustainable agriculture and food. It is a secure data and application environment in which data is collected, analyzed and shared. OpenPlanet aims to provide an answer to the current fragmentation of solutions and the lack of knowledge to effectively convert data into insights and digital services. OpenPlanet offers users the opportunity to share and enrich relevant data for end-user applications across the application domains. OpenPlanet also provides an environment for the development of advanced algorithms and models.
The OpenPlanet platform consists of applications for data collection (sensors, apps, links with various data sources), data connectivity (sensor network, digital infrastructure), data storage and analysis (AI, digital twins), a marketplace for algorithms and applications for action perspective, support and feedback to end users (apps, dashboards). For example, data from wearables can be shared live between doctor and patient, or data from sensors can be used to optimize real-time processes in agriculture.
OpenPlanet is a collaborative project between OnePlanet Research Center, Orikami, IVIDO, JoinData and SIDN. OpenPlanet has received a REACT-EU contribution from the East of the Netherlands. With this, Europe is investing in a rapid economic recovery after COVID-19 in the provinces of Overijssel and Gelderland. This is a contribution that is in line with the priorities of the province of Gelderland:
‘The construction of the data ecosystem and associated activities are aimed at green, digital and resilient recovery of the economy through economic structure strengthening through targeted investments in facilities and valorisation activities that aim to give SMEs the opportunity to test, develop and scale up new ideas and products in an accessible way’– Province of Gelderland
This innovation is funded by the ERDF: European Regional Development Fund of the European Union.
