Access to modern technologies and a comprehensive stock of biodiversity and environmental data
-
Methods and tools for archiving, publishing, searching and analyzing data that are suitable for everyday use and have been tried and tested in practice
-
An expert forum for the safe and competent handling of data for broad and responsible use.
