EDIT - European Distributed Institute of Taxonomy -

This congress provides an overview of recent advances in the field of scientific identification of organisms. It stimulates integration of existing methods and systems, fosters communication amongst different research groups, and lays the foundations for integrated projects in the next decade. The congress is organised jointly by three large European projects dedicated to biodiversity and/or biological identification: KeyToNature, EDIT, and STERNA (Semantic Web-based Thematic European Reference Network Application).
