Challenges Building Online GIS Services to Support Global Biodiversity Mapping and Analysis: Lessons from the Mountain and Plains Database and Informatics project.
Guralnick, Robert P; University of Colorado - Neufeld, David; University of Colorado

Formato:	info:eu-repo/semantics/article, Peer-reviewed Article, info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
Enlaces:	We argue that distributed mapping and analysis of biodiversity information becoming available on global distributed networks is a lynchpin activity linking together research and development challenges in biodiversity informatics. Online mapping is a core activity because it allows users to…
