Section outline

  • This final BioDT webinar explores the essential role of Research Infrastructures (RIs) in powering biodiversity Digital Twins. RIs experts explain how their data, expertise, and technologies contribute to the development of the BioDT prototype Digital Twins - and how the project supports their own missions.

  • The session brings together key partners from GBIF, eLTER, DiSSCo, and LifeWatch ERIC, who share what they achieve through their collaboration with BioDT. Speakers focus on how each RI supports the BioDT project; what they gain or learn from the cooperation; and, future opportunities and remaining challenges.
