Workbench

The Diversity Workbench is composed of components for building and managing biodiversity information, each of which focuses on a particular domain. Each component can provide services to the other components. DiversityTaxonNames can link data to the modules DiversityProjects, DiversityGazetteer, DiversityAgents, DiversityCollection and DiversityReferences as illustrated in the image below. DiversityTaxonNames itself is a source for other modules like DiversityCollection and DiversityDescriptions.

The modules communicate with each other to provide their services for the other modules.
