BiodiversityCatalogue short questionnaire
The BiodiversityCatalogue service is currently interrupted because the project in which it was developed ended a few years ago and there is no solution in place for sustainable operation. All service descriptions in the catalogue have been secured.
The TDWG Biodiversity Services and Clients Interest Group (BSCI) is interested to get your feedback whether this service should be continued and whether that should be in its present form. Based on your feedback, BSCI might work together with DiSSCo to develop a plan for sustainable operation and resume the service or replace it with a new one.
If you submit the questionnaire you agree that the collected results may be shared with BSCI and the DiSSCo Coordination and Support office and may be published in anonymised form.
