Strategy for intellectual property exploitation, final version

This document describes the general actions in the project related to management of intellectual property in knowledge transfer activities. The document is an updated version of D8.7 and is complementary to the Dissemination Plan (D7.5) and the Exploitation Plan (D8.4).
Rules for ownership, access rights, transfer, dissemination and protection of project results follow Section 3 of the Grant Agreement articles 23 – 31: Rights and Obligations related to background and results. In the Consortium Agreement, the partners have specified the limitations and/or conditions for implementation of the action and exploitation of project results.
By the end of INTAROS there is a wide range of exploitable results from the work performed by the consortium members. The results have evolved for atmosphere, ocean and terrestrial observation systems where INTAROS and many other projects have contributed to the progress. The exploitable results include progress in use of new platforms, sensors and increased data production from these platforms. INTAROS has made progress in data management, including standardization of metadata and data products, improved access to data from numerous data repositories, and capacity-building among the data producers as well as the data managers. INTAROS has developed a data catalogue of the data produced in the project which are stored in distributed data repositories. INTAROS has established new collaboration between numerous institutions from Europe, North America and Asia working in the Arctic, which is necessary to build an integrated Arctic Observation System. Finally, many of the exploitable results have been used in application studies, where examples of integrating various observations and models were demonstrated to stakeholder groups. The exploitation of the results will continue after the end of the project.
