Objective

E-RIHS PP is a coordination and support action addressing the topic “Preparatory Phase and support to early phase of ESFRI projects” within the call H2020-INFRADEV-02-2016. The specific action addressed by this project is the preparation of E-RIHS, the European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science (HS), one of the six new projects which entered the ESFRI Roadmap in 2016, and the only research infrastructure project in the Social and Cultural Innovation section of the Roadmap. E-RIHS will help the preservation of the World’s Heritage by enabling cutting-edge research in HS, liaising with governments and heritage institutions to promote its constant development and, finally, raising the appreciation of the large public for cultural and natural heritage and the recognition of its historic, social and economic significance.
E-RIHS PP will start in 2017 and will last three years (2017-2020). The first two will be used to address governance, financial aspects, legal documents and logistics. This will lead to a business plan ready for application to ERIC, or to another suitable legal form, by 2019. The last year will be devoted to negotiations with stakeholders, based on the agreed instruments, further strategic planning and to start up of activities for entering the transition phase. E-RIHS will hopefully be launched as a stand-alone RI in 2021.

Periodic Reporting for period 1 - E-RIHS PP (The European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science Preparatory Phase)

Reporting period: 2017-02-01 to 2018-07-31

Summary of the context and overall objectives of the project

The core challenge of E-RIHS PP is to prepare the establishment of the European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science in the form of an European Research Infrastructure Consortium. E-RIHS ERIC will be a permanent research ecosystem associating people, instruments, competencies and governance to provide innovative research of the highest quality and societal involvement. E-RIHS aims to provide a unified scientific approach to the most advanced European instruments, data and services for the analysis, interpretation, preservation, transmission, documentation and management of heritage.

E-RIHS associates outstanding research centres and institutes in HS, as well as prestigious research laboratories and conservation centres. Their high reputation arises not only from the international recognition of their scientists and scholars, who combine technical expertise with great historical knowledge of tangible heritage of all types, but also from the variety and quality of the capacities and instrumentations there available. The heart of E-RIHS is then a coordinated group of highly qualified researchers and outstanding instruments and services provided to the European user communities. E-RIHS access services will be provided through four integrated platforms:
• E-RIHS ARCHLAB: physical access to specialised knowledge and organized scientific information – including technical images, samples and reference materials, analytical data and conservation documentation – in datasets largely unpublished from archives of prestigious European museums, galleries and research institutions.
• E-RIHS DIGILAB: online access to scientific data concerning tangible heritage, making them FAIR (Findable-Accessible-Interoperable-Reusable). It includes and enables to access searchable registries of specialized digital resources (datasets, reference collections, thesauri, ontologies, etc.); supports data interoperability through the creation of shared knowledge organization systems and provides tools to process them according to researchers’ needs and research questions. Such data will primarily consist in measurement results and scientific information (texts, images, 3D models and more).
• E-RIHS FIXLAB: access to large-scale and medium-scale facilities – particle accelerators and synchrotrons, neutron sources; non-transportable analytical instruments (e.g. micro-CT) – offering a unique expertise to users in the heritage field for sophisticated scientific investigations on cultural and natural heritage objects, both samples and whole items, revealing their microstructure, chemical composition and age, giving essential and invaluable insights into historical technologies, materials, alteration and degradation phenomena or authenticity.
• E-RIHS MOLAB: access to an impressive array of advanced mobile analytical instrumentation for non-invasive measurements on precious, fragile or immovable objects, archaeological sites and historical monuments. The MObile LABoratory allows its users to implement complex multi-technique diagnostic projects, permitting the most effective in situ investigations.
