Atlas of living Australia

The Atlas of Living Australia (Atlas) contains information on all the known species in Australia aggregated from a wide range of data providers: museums, herbaria, community groups, government departments, individuals and universities. This site can be used to access information pages for each species containing photos, descriptions, maps and observations; access scientific and common names; explore the flora and fauna reported around your neighbourhood; learn about Australia’s biodiversity collections at museums, herbaria and other institutions; learn about citizen science projects, map, analyse and visualise biodiversity and environmental data and trends; access tools to help track changes in biodiversity and the environment; download and use open source tools; download biodiversity data; access images, literature and genetic information through Australian nodes of international data repositories; and volunteer for digitisation projects. As well, you can get facts and figures about the information contained in the Atlas from the website dashboard.
