LifeWatchGreece Special Collection in Biodiversity Data Journal

Added on 2016-11-04 10:08:18 by Dekeyzer, Stefanie
The LifeWatchGreece Special Collection is now available in Biodiversity Data Journal, with a series of articles highlighting key contributions to the large-scale European LifeWatch RI.

The Software Description papers explain the LifeWatchGreece Portal, where all the e-Services and the vLabs provided by LifeWatchGreece RI are hosted; the Data-Services based on semantic web technologies, which provide detailed and specialized search paths to facilitate data mining; the R vLab which can be used for a series of statistical analyses in ecology, based on an integrated and optimized online R environment; and the Micro-CT vLab, which allows the online exploration, dissemination and interactive manipulation of micro-tomography datasets.



The LifeWatchGreece Special Collection also includes a series of taxonomic checklists (preliminary, updated and/or annotated); a series of data papers presenting historical and original datasets; and a selection of research articles reporting on the outcomes, methodologies and citizen science initiatives developed by collaborating research projects, which have shared human, hardware and software resources with LifeWatchGreece RI.

The Special Collection "LifeWatchGreece: Research infrastructure (ESFRI) for biodiversity data and data observatories" has been edited by Christos Arvanitidis, Eva Chatzinikolaou, Vasilis Gerovasileiou, Emmanouella Panteri, Nicolas Bailly and Nikos Minadakis and it is available here.
