Description
Summary:The ABDS is built using open source solutions, designed to facilitate the sharing of information. This framework provides an easy to use web interface to search geospatial data across multiple catalogues, combine distributed map services, publish geospatial data and schedule metadata harvesting from other catalogues. The ABDS is the online, interoperable data management system for biodiversity data gerated via CAFF. Its goal is to facilitate access, integration, analysis and display of biodiversity information for scientists, and others working to understand, conserve and manage the Arctic's wildlife and ecosystems.
