| Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) is a not-for-profit, scientific and educational association formed to establish international collaboration among the creators, managers and users of biodiversity information and to promote the wider and more effective dissemination and sharing of knowledge about the world's heritage of biological organisms. To achieve its goals, TDWG develops, ratifies and promotes standards and guidelines for the recording and exchange of data about organisms and acts as a forum for discussing all aspects of biodiversity information management through meetings, task and interest groups, online discussions, and publications. | | Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) is a not-for-profit, scientific and educational association formed to establish international collaboration among the creators, managers and users of biodiversity information and to promote the wider and more effective dissemination and sharing of knowledge about the world's heritage of biological organisms.

| | | The Species (life on Earth) File (software) Group (collaborating community) builds tools that facilitate cataloging, description, and study of the Earth’s species. We specialize in workbenches for biodiversity scientists and indexing all the Earth's species, our group also produces a wide range of open-source libraries and utilities. Examples of work we lead and contribute to include the [https://www.catalogueoflife.org/ Catalogue of Life], [https://globalnames.org/ Global Names Architecture], and [https://taxonworks.org/ TaxonWorks]. | ||

| | | TaxonWorks (TW) is a web-based platform serving taxonomists, biodiversity scientists, natural history collections and more. It allows you to capture, organize, and enrich your taxonomic, nomenclature, collections, and bibliographic source data; share it with collaborators; and package it for analysis and publication. The software has been in production for over 5 years and is very actively updated by a core team of 5 with numerous other community and internal contributions. Anyone in the world can and is encouraged to contribute to the open source code base, https://github.com/SpeciesFileGroup/taxonworks. Talk with us and the TW community on gitter (https://gitter.im/SpeciesFileGroup/taxonworks). | ||
