Description

The tools and standards for a FAIRer and machine-operable DNA-based-data digital ecosystem already exist—but they remain fragmented, inconsistently applied, and poorly connected across biodiversity and omics domains. The eDNAqua-Plan Blueprint presents a bold yet pragmatic vision for a better digital ecosystem, and a critical milestone for biodiversity monitoring and research and evidence-based decision-making.
