Biodiversity is an official SCAR Product and integrates SCAR-MarBIN with the biodiversity databases managed by the Australian Antarctic Division, bringing together data from marine and terrestrial realms. It is building an innovative Antarctic biodiversity information system, giving access to a distributed network of contributing database,
according to the principles of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility. It is building a new data discovery tool using two complementary networks and expands these by using an advanced technical architecture, capable of linking with many potential data resources.
Biodiversity is steered by an International Steering Committee composed of selected experts in the field of Polar biodiversity. It is the data management tool and repository for the biodiversity-related research conducted at the Princess Elisabeth Station.
Biodiversity is funded by the Belgian Science Policy Office.
