Biodiversity research is supported by an ever-increasing volume of citizen science observations, on platforms such as Waarneming.nl/Observation.org and iNaturalist.org. Taxonomic expertise is essential to sustain these platforms, but can be difficult to spread due to the decentralized nature of many citizen science projects.

Introduction We live in a world overflowing with information. Every click, every purchase, every social media post creates data. But data on its own is just noise — the real value is obtained only when we turn that data into insights . That’s where analytics comes in. With Artificial Intelligence (AI), data analytics has become faster, smarter, and more powerful than ever.

Das Herzstück des European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) ist ein wachsendes Gemeinschaftsnetzwerk, das von zwei wichtigen Säulen getragen wird – der Registry und dem Forum. Beides sind virtuelle Räume, die die Vernetzung zwischen den Mitgliedern der Diamond Open Access (OA) Community in Europa fördern sollen.

Achieving the goals of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), requires robust monitoring and reporting to track progress and guide action. However, our ability to understand trends is challenged because biodiversity data are fragmented and biased. This stems from the many different approaches used to record data, aggregate records, and analyze them to detect trends and attribute causes.

Biodiversity is declining in many parts of the world. Biological diversity measurement and monitoring are fundamental to the assessment of the causes and consequences of environmental changes, identification of key areas for the protection of biodiversity or ecosystem services, determining the effectiveness of actions, and the creation of decision-support tools critical to maintaining a sustainable planet.
