Data Managment and Analytics

Our Data Management and Analytics Platform enables the development, deployment and use of digital technologies to improve the management, analysis and application of R&D data – to help design new innovations that advance food security. The platform expands GIFS’ scientific capacity and supports its research and development and that of its stakeholders.

Key objectives of this cross-cutting platform include:

  • Capturing, analyzing and sharing data for various research purposes across all Platforms and Programs.
  • Defining a clear and integrated data policy.
  • Defining a clear data structure and assembling data to enable new discoveries
  • Automate the acquisition of data, improving its quality and efficiency.
