DESCRIPTION:Access to long-term biodiversity datasets is vital for monitori
 ng\, managing\, and protecting freshwater ecosystems. Detecting critical e
 cosystem changes\, such as losing unique biodiversity and ecosystem servic
 es\, is dependent on access to data. A wealth of biodiversity data exists 
 for river ecosystems in South Africa\, but an operational information syst
 em to access these data is currently not available. To address this knowle
 dge gap\, the Freshwater Biodiversity Information System (FBIS) has been d
 eveloped. FBIS is a platform for hosting\, visualizing\, and sharing fresh
 water biodiversity information for South African rivers. The project seeks
  to mobilize and import to the system baseline biodiversity data\, identif
 y strategic long-term monitoring sites\, and train key organizations on ho
 w to use the information system. Using map-based visualizations\, user-fri
 endly dashboards and rapid data extraction capabilities\, the system will 
 improve knowledge of freshwater biodiversity and long-term river health tr
 ends\, thereby supporting better-informed river management decisions and c
 onservation planning projects.
