Senckenberg Wildlive data portal

Senckenberg’s Wildlive data portal, is a repository and analysis platform for biodiversity monitoring.

Using FAIR Signposting, the images from cameras monitoring wildlife are also navigatable as FAIR Digital Objects using RO-Crate to expose the metadata.

The portal uses detached RO-Crate as the images are served over separate API calls for seaprate digital objects. At the same time, the use of Handles for persistent identifiers have been explored, as a demonstrator of a hybrid Web/Handle FDO based on the .
