The second-year report from the IAS monitoring pilot showcases progress in using image-based technologies and AI to detect invasive plants and insects across Europe.

This report outlines updated priorities for biodiversity monitoring (2025–2028), highlighting key areas for strengthened, transnational action.

The second-year report from the soil monitoring pilot compares traditional vs. eDNA methods at a transnational scale.

This concept note presents a user-centered approach to establish priorities for biodiversity monitoring. The methodology involves a recurring survey process designed to align monitoring efforts with stakeholder needs…

Biodiversa+ surveyed its partners on the deployment of five novel monitoring technologies: bioacoustics, camera traps, eDNA/genomics, UAV (drones), and sensor networks. The survey also evaluated the taxa and Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) targeted by these technologies…

This report presents key results, findings and recommendations developed under Biodiversa+ in its two first years regarding development and harmonisation of transnational biodiversity monitoring schemes.

The pilot examined and evaluated the current state of biodiversity monitoring governance, data management and interoperability, and data standards across participating countries and regions.

The pilot combines traditional morphological and DNA-based methods into a unified framework and develops standardised procedures for soil biodiversity assessment and reporting, in Europe and beyond.

This pilot is developing new methods to monitor invasive alien species, focusing on plants and insects. It uses image recognition techniques based on computer vision and deep learning.

A report giving an overview of the main policies and initiatives related to biodiversity indicators across Europe and globally, and identifying the key areas for indicator work within Biodiversa+.
