User Stories

The JERICO-RI is a long-term framework providing high-quality marine data, expertise and infrastructures for Europe’s coastal seas. The data are multidisciplinary, standardised, quality controlled, sustained, interoperable and free to access and use.

As part of the JERICO-S3 Project, in our continuation to develop the JERICO-RI, we are building an e-infrastructure to enable stakeholders and end users to have direct, easy access to the data, tools and information they need. To help us understand how we can help you in your work, we are collecting user stories.

What do we mean by a User Story? A User Story is a very high level and informal record of who you are, what you are doing (job or task title/description), what you need to do it (what sort of tools, data, knowledge you need for that job or task) and what are the task outcomes. It could also mention any special needs – in quantity or quality of the data and information.

You may just have one user story, or you may have several. Please complete a form for each of your stories. Also, forward this survey to your colleagues. You could also add additional user stories on behalf of other people or your own stakeholders and end users.

What do you do?

Please enter in a job title or task title. For example: As a..."Wave forecaster for the Greek coast."

• What are the weaknesses of the coastal observing systems you are using?
• What data/products/services can’t you find in the current offer of Coastal Observing infrastructures?

• What improvements would support your activity at best?
• What requests/advice would you address to the service providers?
