BILBI-live

Digital delivery of biodiversity assessments for corporate reporting needs globally

There are rapidly accelerating needs within global corporate sectors for credible data to underpin biodiversity reporting requirements and decision making. CSIRO has developed a single suite of biodiversity assessment tools (BILBI) providing internationally endorsed indicators that align with emerging global compliance frameworks. These tools have the potential to deliver significant value to corporate entities within Australia and internationally, however, they are currently only able to be delivered to a small market under a labour-intense commercial model.

In order to realise the potential for BILBI to create global impact, this project will scale up the existing global biodiversity modelling infrastructure to an efficient, high-throughput, cloud-based on-demand API delivery system (BILBI-live). The project will undertake commercial trials by linking with an ongoing initiative delivering CSIRO’s natural system science to corporate customers.
