Belize Biodiversity Data Sharing | GIS Conservation Tools

Since 2000, GIS has been integrated into biodiversity data work in Belize. Includes conservation zonation, protected areas management, threat assessment, timber extraction monitoring, and more. Access the Belize Ecosystems Map and related resources on the Biodiversity & Environmental Resource Data System website. Ensure data dissemination with proper metadata standards for GIS information. Utilize MS-Word format for detailed procedures. Visit www.biodiversity.bz for more details.

  10. Most will be familiar with the Belize Ecosystems Map First version published in 2001 With an update in 2005 Much of this work carried out as part of projects that require their output to be public domain. But how to disseminate and assure that people have access to latest version?

  21. Biodiversity & Environmental Resource Data System of Belizehttp://www.biodiversity.bz All data posted must have metadata GIS data must also be accompanied by standard metadata like in ArcGIS

  22. Biodiversity & Environmental Resource Data System of Belizehttp://www.biodiversity.bz All data posted must have metadata GIS data must also be accompanied by standard metadata such as FGDC metadata used in Arc View 3.x.Metadata Collection Tool V2 Developed by NOOA Coastal Services Center 1999.

  23. Biodiversity & Environmental Resource Data System of Belizehttp://www.biodiversity.bz Apart from these standard tools I find it useful to provide metadata in standard MS-Word format. This can be useful to illustrate complex procedures
