Data and Information Management
Explains ILTER's activities relating to the management of long-term data and information, and efforts to encourage greater access to, and integration of, these data.
One of the goals of ILTER is to improve comparability of long-term ecological data from sites around the world, and facilitate exchange and preservation of these data. ILTER also aims to deliver scientific information to scientists, policymakers, and the public. ILTER's activities to improve access to long-term environmental datasets include establishing regional metadata caches, enabling online cross-site searches of a wide range of data.
