Summary• The conceptual framework
– the question– the data– the role of citizen science– CC as solution provider
• Current strategy and developments– Natusfera– Caffe– Cinda
• Future action lines

The question
Martin Sharman, European Commission

The questionCimate change and biodiversity crisis
"Countries can not make decisions about the major environmental problems that affect us, both those related to climate as the natural capital itself without the essential support of the best scientific knowledge available“
Ana Luisa Guzmán, Ejecutive Secretary, CONABIO, México
Fires, erosion, coccolithophores and CO2

• Powered by ICT developments
• ubiquitous• As good as the data put in
![Page 6: Natusfera Lifewatch Competence Center EGI amsterdam 2016 small](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ab1e8a1a28abb5278b5045/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The best data for the best answers• Biodiversity data suitable for analysis
offers a tremendous increase in data available!

CC as solution provider
![Page 10: Natusfera Lifewatch Competence Center EGI amsterdam 2016 small](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ab1e8a1a28abb5278b5045/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Linking, filling gaps, integrating
• Science & Society• Interest & Policy (Society & Administrations)• Content & Tools
• Knowledge > prediction > decisions•Invasive species,
roadkills, endangered species
• From data to services
![Page 12: Natusfera Lifewatch Competence Center EGI amsterdam 2016 small](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ab1e8a1a28abb5278b5045/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Why branching out from iNaturalist?(lessons learnt or to be learnt)
• Localisation: different languages• “Projects of projects”, greater flexibility and
control for users (thinking of communities rather than individuals)
• Customized data publication avenues for users (instead of a monolithic approach)
• iNaturalist subscription model was problematic to accept and to maintain

Data publication, data integration

CINDA• Repository
framework + mobile application
• Applicable to multiple purposes (not just biodiversity)

Species identification

The challenges
• “if we build it, they will come” <-NO– usable, useful, used
• How to get faster innovation that spreads beyond people doing the innovation
• Integration– open data– connecting repositories– standardization (OGC, TDWG)– Metadata
![Page 17: Natusfera Lifewatch Competence Center EGI amsterdam 2016 small](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ab1e8a1a28abb5278b5045/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Future action lines
– Linking CS Biodiversity observation platform(s) and species identification based on automatic image analysts
– Linking biodiversity and environmental observations and information
![Page 18: Natusfera Lifewatch Competence Center EGI amsterdam 2016 small](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ab1e8a1a28abb5278b5045/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Linking CS Biodiversity observation platform(s) and species identification based on automatic image analysis
Observer/SC gets species IDInstant satisfaction
Species distribution DB gets IDDB quality

Linking biodiversity and environmental observations and information
• shared infrastructure• shared standards• open data• linked data
• species occurence data
• environmental data
• Simultaneous recording of biodiversity and environmental conditions
• Improved models > improved predictions > improved decisions
• Autonomous data acquisition Integration • Unified access
![Page 20: Natusfera Lifewatch Competence Center EGI amsterdam 2016 small](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062412/58ab1e8a1a28abb5278b5045/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
As a way of conclusion• Integration has to go beyond ICT:– ICT- Biology– Science – Society– …
• Tension projects vs infrastructures• ·”So much to do so little time”• Appreciate the opportunity: ICT is changing the
way biodiversity is studied, conserved and managed…
… still struggling to get the right incentives in place (cultural change)
