2019 Ebbe Nielsen Challenge

From January 23rd, the 2019 Ebbe Nielsen Challenge call is opened to encourage innovative uses of and applications for the open biodiversity research infrastructure supported by GBIF. This year, the Challenge will award €34,000 for entries which develop new applications, visualizations, methods, workflows or analyses, often (but not always) making use of the GBIF API to access data. You may also build on or extend the capabilities of existing tools and features from across the GBIF network.

Entrants must be received via the Challenge submission page by Thursday, 1 August 2019, at 1600 UTC+2. The winners will be announced at the 26th GBIF Governing Board meeting, in the Netherlands, in October 2019.

The Challenge is open to individuals, teams of individuals, companies and their employees, and governmental agencies and their employees. On this link, you can find more information about the Challenge.
