0301149 LaneThis award provides five years of U.S. support for the Global Biological Information Facility (GBIF), a multilateral organization headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark. GBIF is a coordinated international scientific effort to enable users throughout the world to discover and put to use vast quantities of global biodiversity data. GBIF will develop an interoperable network of biodiversity databases and related information technology tools. Near term GBIF developments will focus on species- and specimen-level data. Mid-term development will concentrate on expansion of content, additional improvements of search engines and tools to combine data from different sources. In the long term, GBIF will provide a portal that enables simultaneous queries against biodiversity, molecular, genetic, ecological and ecosystem level databases, which will facilitate and enable "data mining" of unprecedented utility and scientific merit.

[0301149]该奖项为总部设在丹麦哥本哈根的多边组织全球生物信息设施（GBIF）提供为期五年的美国支持。GBIF是一项协调的国际科学努力，使世界各地的用户能够发现和使用大量的全球生物多样性数据。GBIF将开发一个可互操作的生物多样性数据库网络和相关信息技术工具。近期GBIF的发展将集中在物种和标本水平的数据上。中期开发将集中于内容的扩展、搜索引擎的进一步改进以及整合不同来源数据的工具。从长远来看，GBIF将提供一个能够同时查询生物多样性、分子、遗传、生态和生态系统级别数据库的门户，这将促进和实现前所未有的实用性和科学价值的“数据挖掘”。
