mission
One of the greatest challenges in nature conservation research is not the fieldwork itself, but the reliable documentation and management of data. OpenBioMaps helps make the recording, storage, and processing of field observations simple, transparent, and secure — without unnecessary administration.
OpenBioMaps is an open-source data management system co-developed by conservation professionals and researchers. It can be hosted on your own server, is fully customizable, and can be adapted to the needs of any conservation or biodiversity research project.
The system provides a PostgreSQL-based database that integrates easily with other tools — such as QGIS or R. Field data can thus be transferred directly and instantly into the system, reducing errors and minimizing the time spent on post-processing.
A well-organized data management system not only increases data security and quality but also makes researchers’ work more efficient. With OpenBioMaps, data collection and analysis are seamlessly connected — leaving more time for what truly matters: observing and protecting nature.
