Webinar – BioDT use cases: unique demonstrators to test the biodiversity Digital Twin prototype

The BioDT project aims to develop the biodiversity BioDT prototype to help better predict global biodiversity dynamics and how species interact with their environment and with each other.

In order to test the work the project team is bringing forward, the BioDT team will develop over the course of three years, groups of use cases that showcase how BioDT can examine its predictive performance and address biodiversity challenges through scenario simulations, predictions and biomonitoring methods.

The four use cases groups that BioDT is developing focus on: Species response to environmental change Genetically detected biodiversity Dynamics and threats from and for species of policy concern Species interactions with each other and with humans
