The EDIT Partnership

Network of 25 taxonomic institutions with the aim to integrate research and improve the production of knowledge Initiated by the Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilities (CETAF) Funded by the European Commission (March 2006 – February 2011) Coordinated by the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle (Paris)

The EDIT Partnership Partners from 13 Countries

EDIT Scope 1. Coordination and Management –Financial, Public relations, Gender Action Plan Integrating Experts and Expertise –Experts database, Joint Research Grants, Infrastructure Basis –Coordination with other initiatives, Barcoding, Coordinating collections, European Checklists => Yde de Jong & al.: A Pan-European Species- Directories Infrastructure (PESI) [Poster 19.15] 4. Coordinating Research

EDIT Scope 2 8. Training and Public Awareness –Survey of European training resources in taxonomy; EDIT Summerschool; Expert-in-Training Programme 7. Taxonomy for Conservation –Building task forces for Biodiversity Inventories: Mercantour/Alpi Marittime (France/Italy), Gemer (Slovakia), and Udzungwe mountains (Tanzania), Unifying Revisionary Taxonomy –Exemplar groups, Scratchpads => Simon Rycroft & al.: Small pieces loosely joined: Building scientific web communities with Scratchpads [Presentation]

5. Platform for Cybertaxonomy Aims: 1. “Integrating” the Informatics Departments 2. Creating a software environment for taxonomists Resources – In 2008: 14 developers, 2 support personnel,  12 full time positions + institutional personnel Development jobs –Software specification, development, documentation, and interfacing

EDIT Platform for Cybertaxonomy The platform is a collection of services and tools, and interfaces and transformation tools aimed at interoperability with existing developments and projects centred on a Common Data Model and a Java open source programming library => Andreas Müller & al.: EDIT Platform for Cybertaxonomy – An Overview [Presentation 12.2]

EDIT Platform for Cybertaxonomy Timeline (see next slide)

Timelines and Sustainability Concept development and teambuilding Technology evaluation Development First products Platform v. 3 Platform v. 1 Platform v PESI Project CATE II ? LifeWatch ? CATE Project Institutional support

EDIT Platform for Cybertaxonomy Andreas Kohlbecker

EDIT Data Portal Publishes results Search function Optimized taxonomic tree browser Multiple opinions Future versions with –Annotations / notes –Images –Common names => Andreas Kohlbecker & al.: EDIT Data Portal – A flexible publishing tool for biodiversity information networks [Demo 18.5]

EDIT Geo-Platform => Bart Meganck & al.: The roots and branches of the GeoPlatform Tree [Poster 19.22, 19.23]

EDIT Geo-Platform: mapViewer => Pere Roca Ristol & al.: EDIT mapViewer: a Geographic Web Application for Taxonomists [Poster 19.34]

Descriptive tool interoperability Aim: interoperability of taxonomic tools SDD import/export functionalities for the Common Data Model Problems with dialects! => Hélène Fradin & al.: Taxonomic data exchange facilities for descriptive tools [Poster 19.11]

Specimen & Observation Explorer Access to GBIF data for taxonomists Generic thesaurus interface for query expansion Multilingual Based on BioCASE/ SYNTHEYS => Patricia Kelbert & al.: The new EDIT Specimen and observation explorer for taxonomists [Demo 18.4] search.biocase.org/edit
