The ENVRI Reference Model serves the following purposes [ Bibliography#ref11]:

• to provide a way for structuring thinking that helps the community to reach a common vision;
• to provide a common language that can be used to communicate concepts concisely;
• to help discover existing solutions to common problems;
• to provide a framework into which different functional components of research infrastructures can be placed, in order to draw comparisons and identify missing functionality.

Environmental issues will dominate the 21^st century [ Bibliography#ref22]. Research infrastructures that provide advanced capabilities for data sharing, processing and analysis enable excellent research and play an ever-increasing role in the environmental sciences as well as in solving societal challenges. The ENVRIplus project and its predecessor ENVRI project gathers many of the EU ESFRI and other environmental infrastructures (ICOS, EURO-Argo, EISCAT-3D, LifeWatch, EPOS, EMSO, etc.) to find common solutions to common problems, including use of common software solutions. The results, including the ENVRI Reference Model will accelerate the construction of these infrastructures and improve interoperability among them. The experiences gained will also benefit building of other advanced research infrastructures.  

The primary objective of ENVRI is to agree on a reference model for joint operations. This will enable greater understanding and cooperation between infrastructures since fundamentally the model will serve to provide a universal reference framework for discussing many common technical challenges facing all of the ESFRI-ENV infrastructures. By drawing analogies between the reference components of the model and the actual elements of the infrastructures (or their proposed designs) as they exist now, various gaps and points of overlap can be identified [ Bibliography#ref33].

The ENVRI Reference Model is based on the design experiences of the state-of-the-art environmental research infrastructures, with a view of informing future implementation. It tackles multiple challenging issues encountered by existing initiatives, such as data streaming and storage management; data discovery and access to distributed data archives; linked computational, network and storage infrastructure; data curation, data integration, harmonisation and publication; data mining and visualisation, and scientific workflow management and execution. It uses Open Distributed Processing (ODP), a standard framework for distributed system specification, to describe the model.

The ENVRI Reference Model is built on top of the Open Distributed Processing (ODP) framework [ Bibliography#ref44,  Bibliography#ref55,  Bibliography#ref66,  Bibliography#ref77]. ODP is an international standard for architecting open, distributed processing systems. It provides an overall conceptual framework for building distributed systems in an incremental manner.
