iDigBio

iDigBio is a digital platform that preserves and shares information about biological specimens collected from around the world, such as plants, animals, and fossils. It digitizes data from museum collections and research institutions, making detailed records accessible online. This helps scientists, educators, and the public study biodiversity, track changes in ecosystems, and support conservation efforts. By digitalizing these specimens, iDigBio ensures valuable biological data is preserved, searchable, and available globally, fostering research and understanding of Earth’s natural history without the need to access physical collections directly.
