Multiple levels of interoperability are considered, encompassing organizations, researchers, and required data resources and systems. The project supports collaborative research by integrating survey data from the European Social Survey, climate data from Copernicus, and air quality data from the European Environmental Agency. This research examines environmental factors and their impact on urban inhabitants in various European cities, necessitating expertise across domains, access to diverse data sources, and agreement on semantics and technical implementation. The collaboration process is explored, and information needs of participants are identified. The project emphasizes establishing methods for data integration, from researchers to implementation and documentation, which includes developing a prototype system to support the use of integrated data.
