In 2022, GEOMAR created the Data Science Unit as its internal start-up to centralize Data Science support and activities. With up to eight data scientists as support personnel for GEOMAR, various projects and services were addressed in the following years. Now, three years since the foundation, we present lessons-learned such as the importance of on-site training programs, the challenges in balancing generalisation and customization or the varied success in achieving science-based key performance indicators.
