Abstract

Extisting biodiversity databases contain an abundance of information. To turn such information into knowledge, it is necessary to address several information-model issues. Biodiversity data are collected for various scientific objectives, often even without clear preliminary objectives, may follow different taxonomy standards and organization logic, and be held in multiple file formats and utilising a variety of database technologies. This paper presents a graph catalogue model for the metadata management of biodiversity databases. It explores the possible operation of data mining and visualization to guide the analysis of heterogeneous biodiversity data. In particular, we would propose contributions to the problems of (1) the analysis of heterogeneous distributed data found across different databases, (2) the identification of matches and approximations between data sets, and (3) the identificaton of relationships between various databases. This paper describes a proof of concept of an infrastructure testbed and its basic operations, presenting an evaluation of the resulting system in comparison with the ideal expectations of the ecologist.
