NIWA - Dataversity

FBIS : Freshwater Biodiversity Information System

Old, struggling to cope with current user requirements

New design, rebuild, integrate FWFDB

TFBIS/NIWA funded

NIWA - Dataversity

FWFDB : Freshwater Fish Database

Old, also can't meet current requirements

Effectively a subset of a full FBIS

Will be part of a wider spec'd new FBIS

How is NIWA doing what it is doing?

As a CRI, NIWA is required to make a return on assets,

but also to support an “NZ Inc/public good” approach

WRT to OS2020:

Open standards; open source; open data

NIWA - Dataversity

Open standards; open source; open data

Open standards provide interoperability(map layers embedded in other apps)

Open source provides reuseability(biosecurity portal from OS2020 one)

Open data provides ...
