Madan, Congratulations on DOC's Biodiversity Projects Database <http://www.doc.govt.nz/conservation/land-and-freshwater/biodiversity-projects-database/>. I imagine that this could be very useful to anyone who wants to know what biodata projects are in progress or have been carried out in their region. I see that, while this is administered by the Department of Conservation, it is a *national* catalogue of biodiversity inventory and monitoring projects, for research projects managed by various organisations, institutions and the community. It looks like almost all the project records are currently for DOC projects. What is the plan for populating this more widely? Are you seeking project data contributions from local government, CRIs and NGOs now? While this is a projects database, I assume that it is restricted to projects that yield some kind of dataset. Is that right? Would it be feasible, perhaps for a small organisation to use this to meet their in-house needs for a projects data-catalogue? Does it have some kind of API? Do plans exist to integrate or federate this with DOC's Geoportal <http://geoportal.doc.govt.nz/> or other data catalogues <http://dataversity.org.nz/groups/dataversity_public_discuss/messages/topic/58zqIICRAQhbZGyEfd3gyL>?

Hi Dan, IN 2012 WE WILL LOOK AT EXTERNALS AND "MARKET" THIS TOOL TO ATTRACT PROJECTS No interface to raw data; not what is was meant to do. If no data is collected - all good to be included (you see, as a country still good to have on the board for information sharing) Benno Kappers MSc NHMS information management project leader BioWeb Herpetofauna database administrator Department of Conservation PO Box 644 Napier Phone (DDI): 06 834 4865 Fax : 06 834 4869 Cell : 027 291 6922 www.doc.govt.nz/nzherpatlas

Hi Don, Sorry I was in a day course, yesterday. As Benno explained that currently we are focusing on sorting out DOCs' projects. From 2012 we will be focusing in marketing the tool for external projects.
