Data from biodiversity collections in the US




BIOLOGICAL COLLECTIONS
ARE INVALUABLE.

Estimates suggest that Natural History museums curate between 1 and 2 billion
specimens in the U.S. and 3 to 4 billion worldwide. Prior to the advent of
digitization and data portals, these collections were siloed, located great
distances apart geographically, and difficult to visit. Digitization has
resolved lots of these challenges.

The data within these collections, accumulated across space and time, are
becoming essential in analyses by ecologists, environmental biologists, in
conservation, human health investigations, food security, climate change, the
bioeconomy, and many more fields.
