12. Intro to Voyage Project Sustainability • Commitment of Universities and Partners to work for the Project Platform to survive beyond the project life. • Sustainability implies the centralization and migration of the system in Vietnam, that is the structuring of the system in a centralized manner (a single node) to accommodate data from all the partner universities and allow a shared management and arrangement, together with the different nodes at each university level (each university, via the web, is able to access its own services). • The "Consortium" has to deal with Technical Activities as the management of the system hardware, software update, system evolution, regular maintenance and system exploitation (survey production).
