Abstract
A majority of biodiversity research projects depend on field recording and ecology data. Therefore it is important to provide a seamless and transparent data flow from the field to the data storage systems and networks. Seamless in the sense, that data are available shortly after their gathering, transparent in the sense that the history of data operations may be traced backward. DiversityMobile (with the complementing applications of the Diversity Workbench frameworks) is a GUI software that provides the option of gathering biological and ecological research data in a structured way by using mobile devices for data retrieval.
