BioMonitoring Data Facility

- What impact does the internet have on science?
- What technology can scientists use to digitally save their observations, apply thorough analyses and prepare their data for publishing to the scientific community?
- How can data (collected and refined) be stored securely and sustainably in the longterm?
These questions are of particular relevance for the tasks of the plant systematics department. The IT-team is working hard on answers. The BioMonitoring Data Facility assists scientists with the accomplishment of their tasks that include the production and distribution of utilisable knowledge. The internet is increasingly used by scientist as the platform of choice to present their results. This communication channel is by no means one way. Communication networks are established that allow members to rapidly exchange important information. The BioMonitoring Data Facility team recognises and utilises latest technology to meet these challenges.
