Summary: |
The Conservation Data Center
of the Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina (CDC-UNALM) has been
gathering information about species records in Peru for more
than twenty five years.
Until today, we have collected more than 41 600
species records. Each record contains information of the observed
species, where and when it was reported (including accuracy), the
bibliographical source, among other data. This information is the result
of the bibliographic review and of our own field investigation.
The aim is to transfer all information related to species reports
to a new database (PostgreSQL) and to publish it on a web site, by means
of a web server, following IABIN standards. This process will also help
to promote the information exchange between Peruvian researchers.
Likewise, we aim to improve the actual conditions to actualize the
database and to incorporate new records. |
