The South African Biodiversity Information Facility (SABIF) was today launched at the Innovation Hub in Pretoria by Science and Technology Deputy Minister Derek Hanekom.
SABIF aims to contribute to sustainable development by facilitating access to biodiversity and related information on the Internet. The SABIF portal will serve as South Africa's national gateway to open and free scientific biodiversity information, and at present over 2 million records are available to the GBIF network.
