  2. Main objectives GROWTH in DATA ACCESS SCALABILITY CAPACITY VISIBILITY Discover richer content, greater quality, easier access. Distributed architecture. Appropriate infrastructure, tools and services. Powerful and user friendly interfaces. GBRDS Strategy Web site IPT WCMC-WDPA HIT CMS-GROMS Infrastructure

  3. 2009-2010 Strategy Improved access to Names, Metadata and Primary Biodiversity Data Distributed GBIF informatics architecture Faster and easier publishing of data

  4. Strategy

  5. Achievements - Focus on the 3 major components of the GBIF Informatics Suite (IPT, HIT and GBRDS) to ensure their portability to Nodes.

  6. Achievements - Focus on improving the stability of the Portal, increasing the functionalities, facilitating better access to the indexed data and publishers. Web Services Web Visitors +775% increase in speed +150% since 01/2009

  7. Achievements - Focus on improving the visibility of GBIF as well as on providing richer experience in discovering biodiversity data published by the GBIF Network achieved by integration with strategic partners.

  8. 2010 challenges Support the capacitating/linkages of Nodes /Participants Further Integrate the GBIF Infrastructure Finalise the Informatics Suite with Nodes/Participants

  9. Mechanisms Participants Participantneeds Products & Services Participation Informatics GBIF Secretariat

  10. Recommendations • Setup a clear communication channel between Participants and Informatics! • Develop clear user needs for the 2010 informatics products (e.g. IPT, HIT, GBRDS, NPT, Portal). • Contribute to the software development decentralisation strategy. • Setup a clear product delivery monitoring system with Informatics.
