Description

We are a non-profit association, whose objective is to bring citizens closer to biodiversity through the use of citizen science as a source of information for the dissemination of knowledge and the conservation of nature. We have a project called Biodiversidad Virtual, a virtual platform that incorporates biodiversity data through georeferenced and dated photography. In this case, this resource manages our data about invertebrates.

Sampling Description

Study Extent

Iberian Peninsula and Baleares

Sampling

Georeferenced and dated photography in the natural environment.

Method steps

  1. The georeferenced and dated photographs are stored on the server, and later identified by the corresponding experts of each group. Subsequently, they are sorted into folders with the most detailed taxonomic level possible, being continuously reviewed by our community.

Taxonomic Coverages

"Invertebrates" (Arthropods and non-Arthropods)
  1. Animalia
    rank: kingdom

Geographic Coverages

Iberian Peninsula and Baleares
