Using Galaxy-Ecology to operationalize EBVs: French BON EBV operationalization pilot: Reusing existing informatics solutions and open-source communities to connect existing data ecosystem and high-performance computing
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Thanks to the Data Terra (French digital research infrastructure for Earth system and environment), at the PNDB (French Biodiversity data hub), we started in 2018 the use of existing informatics solutions to propose operational ways to manage, share and analyze biodiversity and auxiliary data and metadata. Starting from a combination of a computational workflow oriented open-source solution, the Galaxy platform, and a pivotal metadata standard, Ecological Metadata Language (EML), we designed an iterative model to propose an operational Biodiversity information system allowing scaling from local, where Biodiversity is, to global, in an accessible, transparent and reusable manner.We propose here to present actual state of the pilot showcasing the relevance of 1| the "atomization-generalization framework" designed for Galaxy Ecology initiative https:||doi.org|10.1093|gigascience|giae122 to allow reusing biodiversity indicators computational workflows in different taxonomic, spatial and temporal extents and 2| the use of EML metadata standard as a pivotal and common language to allow reaching required high FAIRness in biodiversity monitoring.
