Organising, comparing and linking the vast amount of data on living organisms is essential to understanding and protecting them. By coordinating genetic data, field observations and scientific knowledge, we support better-informed conservation decisions and policies.

Data on living organisms are gathered in the field, through the observation of species, their habitats and the changes they undergo. Once collated and analysed, this data reveals changes in ecosystems and provides insights that help us to better protect nature.

Reliable data is our guiding light for environmental policy. Without it, decision-makers are groping in the dark. By coordinating geospatial data, statistics and field observations, we can track trends and develop scenarios to find the narrow path towards sustainable development in an informed manner.
