A global biodiversity information project is seeking an IT consultant in Paris to develop an online data entry and editing tool for biodiversity observations. The role involves collaboration with international researchers and ensuring compliance with data standards. Ideal candidates should have experience in developing similar tools and the ability to work with teams in under-represented regions.
October 24, 2018 - OBIS OBIS vacancy consultancy
The consultant will need to develop an online data entry and editing tool that will make it easier to publish (a small number of incidental) observations to OBIS, allowing individual researchers to report important observations from under-represented areas and time periods and underreported species.
The tool is specifically meant for scientists, based at NGOs and marine research institutions from least developed countries and small island developing states where the capacity to manage, archive and publish data through data centres or OBIS nodes is often lacking. The consultant needs to partner with OBIS nodes, in particular those in Kenya and Senegal to help in the design and test phase.
The deadline for applications is 15 November 2018 (Paris time). More information can be found here.
