Sustainable integration of the research and educational computing
and communication infrastructure in the Baltic States into the
European Grid infrastructure. Enable the formation of effective
research collaborations in the Baltic States, within Europe and
beyond. Enabling an efficient sharing of unique instruments and
data, as for instance environmental data related to the Baltic Sea.
