A Pamphlet For Data Holders
Are you holding valuable biodiversity data that aren’t yet connected to the wider scientific and policy landscape? As part of its mission to enhance the flow of biodiversity data into the European Digital Twin of the Ocean (EU DTO), the DTO-BioFlow project has produced this pamphlet as a compact and accessible "how-to" resource for data providers.
This resource is intended ford for data holders, from research institutes to monitoring programmes, who collect or manage marine biodiversity data and who want to understand how to contribute to the Digital Twin of the Ocean through DTO-BioFlow.
What you will find inside
- The purpose of DTO-BioFlow and its connection to the EU DTO
- The benefits of contributing data, both for providers and the broader marine science community
- Practical steps for preparing and submitting your data
- Support and training opportunities available through the project and beyond
This document serves as a concise reference that can be easily shared across your organisation or network. It offers a clear entry point for those looking to align biodiversity data with European standards and better understand the steps involved in preparing, publishing, and maintaining high-quality marine data contributions.
