Abstract
The Viticulture Data Journal (VDJ) is launched with the aim of offering a publication venue for non-conventional but valuable outputs of the research cycle: data, models, methods, software, data analytics pipelines and visualisation methods in viticultural research. VDJ is published on the ARPHA journal platform, which supports the full life cycle of a manuscript, from writing through submission, peer review, publication and dissemination within a single online collaborative platform. During the AGINFRA+ project, which has supported the journal launch, ARPHA has been extended to be used from the AGINFRA+ Virtual Research Environment (VRE).
