Ecoinformatic tools for research, policy and international collaboration on tropical forests and peatlands

Curating data from international networks and collaborations has improved our understanding of the ecological processes that take place in tropical forests. The ForestPlots.net platform was developed to facilitate the process of managing and analyzing  long-term datasets of forests. This session will present some of the challenges of large-scale data collaborations, key discoveries that are possible by bringing multiple datasets together; and how the lessons learnt are being applied to peatland research.
