The Digital Research Object Portal (DROP) ensures that valuable scientific data and project outcomes from EmergeNOW remain accessible, traceable and reusable for the wider plant-health community. By defining standardized metadata and connectable identifiers, DROP organizes datasets and documents associated with CBS, HLB and related quarantine pests, enabling stakeholders to easily find and reuse research outputs that support surveillance, diagnostics and policy development.
EmergeNOW extends DROP’s coverage by including essential digital research objects such as genomic sequences, HTS datasets, AI model outputs, and remote-sensing analyses. Open-access publications, validated deliverables and other key knowledge items are made available through trusted repositories, with interoperability and long-term preservation ensured. By linking to national and international resources, DROP enhances visibility of relevant plant-health information and promotes collaboration across borders, strengthening preparedness against emerging threats.
