This platform is a joint effort between the
sRedList working group and
LifeWatch Italy, aiming to facilitate and streamline the work of Red List assessors. By providing an easy and interactive access to multiple analyses, we aim to improve the consistency of the assessments across experts and taxa, while not limiting expert judgement in the evaluation. Every product of the platform can be directly submitted to SIS Connect.
It currently enables for instance:
- Creating a distribution from online available or uploaded occurrence data
- Mapping species Area of Habitat and calculating trends in Area of Habitat
- Extracting Countries of Occurrence of the species
- Calculating trends in forest cover in species' range
- Calculating population severe fragmentation
More information is available in the
platform documentation, the
platform cheatsheet, or
video tutorials. You can also find more information and ask questions on the
forum.
