ENBI - European Network for Biodiversity Information
| |
Welcome to the ENBI service “Biodiversity databases and database projects”!
|
Objectives | The aim of this service is to give you a fast overview on “Biodiversity databases and database projects” with focus on Europe and the opportunity to present your database in the ENBI network. We are building this free searchable database
with the help of all ENBI members.
The service is part of WP 2: “ENBI forums / Inventory of state-of-art”
(http://www.enbi.info/forums).
|
Methodology: Online data input and data editing | 1. Member of the ENBI network (> 140 members, who represent minimum one institution or organisation) organising the data input and data editing of their own databases and projects in this online database.
| 2. Relevant databases and projects of non-ENBI members (in Europe and outside Europe) should also be included. Therefore it would be very helpful, if all ENBI members would invite other representatives of institutions or organisations to present
their database here.
|
Advantage of the online data input and data editing | The database owners/holders have the most extensive knowledge about their database (e.g. content, address, url). Online data entry is the best and fastest way to minimise errors and to correct them quickly.
|
Registration and sign-in | Access to the database is free but personalised, which means that people are required to register first before they proceed to data inputting and editing. Registration takes place only once. For data editing, sign-in (with your personal user name and
password) is needed before every session. For any queries, no sign-in or registration is necessary.

Suggestions and questions | If you have any suggestions or questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.
