About the data
Primary Biodiversity Data
Primary Biodiversity Data is defined as: Digital text or multimedia data record detailing facts about the instance of
- ccurrence of an organism, i.e. on the what, where, when,
how and by whom of the occurrence and the recording.
Observational data S pecimen data

How we see the benefits from GIASIP
To provide additional value to what GBIF does alone…
To enrich exist ing informat ion syst ems (CABI, GIS D, GIS IN, FishBase, DAIS IE, NOBANIS … ) To mobilize addit ional specimen/ observat ions records relevant t o IAS agenda. To provide IAS specific user int erface (e.g. in support of assessment s et c.) To cont ribut e t o t he development of an IAS IT infrast ruct ure (e.g. web services, dat a st andards, t ools et c.) To mobilize t he GBIF communit y (dat a publishers, scient ist s et c.) To demonst rat e t he relevance of GBIF in cont ribut ing t o t he Aichi t arget s (not only IAS ) To enable GIAS IP t o become a t hemat ic discovery syst em.

How we see the benefits from GIASIP
What GIASIP shouldn’t do!
Become (yet anot her) port al providing nice user int erface but lit t le added value. Duplicat e t he funct ions of t he cont ribut ing informat ion syst ems. Be coordinat ed by a single
- rganizat ion.
To develop it s own IT infrast ruct ure incompat ible wit h exist ing global init iat ives (e.g. GBIF). Become (yet anot her) dat abase duplicat ing all records/ informat ion from ot her informat ion syst ems. Developed out side t he CBD Clearing-House Mechanism Ignore t he primary end-user requirement s (i.e. CBD part ies!)

How we see the GIASIP
Some ideas…
- S
hould be conceived as a P AR TNERS HIP and not a new
- rganizat ion or informat ion syst em,
- Needs t o cont ribut e t o t he CBD Aichi Target s t hrough t he CHM,
- Clear goals and obj ect ives,
- Measurable t arget s for t he short , medium and long-t erm,
- Clear governance (e.g. st eering commit t ee et c.),
- Formal agreement s in t he form of a MoU/ MoC,
- Clear roles and responsibilit ies bet ween part ners and t he CBD
S ecret ariat ,
- S
t rat egic fund-raising around a business plan for t he next 5-10 years,
- Key product s art iculat ed, priorit y species ident ified, st rat egic

- Develop a new model for ot her Aichi t arget s (e.g. t hreat ened

Carcinus maenas
Rough map of the distribution of Carcinus maenas, blue areas are the native range, red areas are the introduced or invasive range, black dots represent single sightings that did not lead to invasion, and green areas are the potential range of the species.
Carcinus maenas is a common littoral crab, and an important invasive species, listed among the 100 "world's worst alien invasive species".[2] It is native to the north-east Atlantic Ocean and Baltic S ea, but has colonised similar habitats in Australia, S
- uth Africa, S
- uth America and both Atlantic and Pacific coasts
- f North America. It grows to a carapace width of 90
millimetres (3.5 in), and feeds on a variety of molluscs, worms and small crustaceans, potentially impacting a number of
- fisheries. Its successful dispersion has occurred via a variety of
mechanisms, such as on ships' hulls, packing materials, bivalves moved for aquaculture, and rafting.
