The UNAM opens the door to share millions of open data for the benefit of education and research. With this portal (www.datosabiertos.unam.mx) the university shares records of digital collections, academic research projects, repositories and publications to generate new knowledge. This way, it works as an online access point to search university collections authorized for their use, reuse and free redistribution by anyone, without copyright restrictions, patents or other control mechanisms, as long as the Terms of Free Use for UNAM Open Data are respected. The UNAM Open Data Portal contains data, digital objects and geospatial layers of biological collections, artistic work, music, veterinary medicine, university projects, among others. It allows databases to be consulted and downloaded in open and structured formats. One of the most outstanding collections is the National Herbarium of Mexico (MEXU), with almost two million records and high resolution images of plants around the world, mainly collected in Mexico. MEXU is the largest herbarium in the country and in Latin America; it’s among one of the ten most active herbariums in the world.
MorphoSource is a data repository specialized for 3D representing physical objects used in research in education (e.g., from museum or laboratory collections). It allows researchers and museum collection staff to store and organize, share, and distribute their own 3d data. Furthermore any registered user can immediately search for and download 3d morphological data sets that have been made accessible through the consent of data authors.
The Catalogue of Life is the most comprehensive and authoritative global index of species currently available. It consists of a single integrated species checklist and taxonomic hierarchy. The Catalogue holds essential information on the names, relationships and distributions of over 1.8 million species. This figure continues to rise as information is compiled from diverse sources around the world.
Funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and proudly operated by Battelle, the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) program provides open, continental-scale data across the United States that characterize and quantify complex, rapidly changing ecological processes. The Observatory’s comprehensive design supports greater understanding of ecological change and enables forecasting of future ecological conditions. NEON collects and processes data from field sites located across the continental U.S., Puerto Rico, and Hawaii over a 30-year timeframe. NEON provides free and open data that characterize plants, animals, soil, nutrients, freshwater, and the atmosphere. These data may be combined with external datasets or data collected by individual researchers to support the study of continental-scale ecological change.

The project brings together national key players providing environmentally related biological data and services to develop the ‘German Federation for Biological Data' (GFBio). The overall goal is to provide a sustainable, service oriented, national data infrastructure facilitating data sharing and stimulating data intensive science in the fields of biological and environmental research.
The Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) combines and provides scientifically collected data from a wide range of sources such as museums, herbaria, community groups, government departments, individuals and universities. Data records consist of images, literature, molecular DNA data, identification keys, species interaction data, species profile data, nomenclature, source data, conservation indicators, and spatial data.

FinBIF is an integral part of the global biodiversity informatics framework, dedicated to managing species information. Its mission encompasses a wide array of services, including the generation of digital data through various processes, as well as the sourcing, collation, integration, and distribution of existing digital data. Key initiatives under FinBIF include the digitization of collections, the development of data systems for collections Kotka (https://biss.pensoft.net/article/37179/) and observations (https://biss.pensoft.net/article/39150/), and the establishment of a national DNA barcode reference library. FinBIF manages data types such as verbal species descriptions (which include drawings, pictures, and other media types), biological taxonomy, scientific collection specimens, opportunistic systematic and event-based observations, and DNA barcodes. It employs a unified IT architecture to manage data flows, delivers services through a single online portal, fosters collaboration under a cohesive umbrella concept, and articulates development visions under a unified brand. The portal Laji.fi serves as the entry point to this harmonized open data ecosystem. FinBIF's portal is accessible in Finnish, Swedish, and English. Data intended for restricted use are made available to authorities through a separate portal, while open data are also shared with international systems, such as GBIF.
TreeBASE is a repository of phylogenetic information, specifically user-submitted phylogenetic trees and the data used to generate them. TreeBASE accepts all types of phylogenetic data (e.g., trees of species, trees of populations, trees of genes) representing all biotic taxa. Data in TreeBASE are exposed to the public if they are used in a publication that is in press or published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, book, conference proceedings, or thesis. Data used in publications that are in preparation or in review can be submitted to TreeBASE but are only available to the authors, publication editors, or reviewers using a special access code.
