Invasive Species as a Trilateral Challenge Albuquerque, New Mexico 29 April 2003
Davis Declaration calls for…
• global strategy to coordinate invasive species information
• establishment of a global distributed information system
• development of identification tools worldwide
• research & development agencies to make resources available
14-15 February 2001, Davis, Californiahttp://ice.ucdavis.edu/Davis_Declaration/
Invasive Species Data Types
(Discussed at the North American Hub Meeting, Davis CA Feb 2002)
• Images, maps, photos• Fact sheets• Identification aids• Bibliographies• Educational materials• URLs, URIs• Other documents
• Organizations• Experts• Projects• Datasets• Species Lists• Observations• Specimens
(Bolded items are also part of the I3N model)
CBD informal invasives experts meetingcalls for…
• global invasives information network with open membership
• mechanisms to report status and accomplishments
• support of early warning systems
• open standards & development of vocabularies
• tool kit for regional hubs

Invasive Species Information Node
• U.S. contribution to the North American Invasives Information Hub
http://invasivespecies.nbii.gov
• Thematic node of the NBII
• Seeks to establish, maintain, and accelerate the sharing, standardization, completeness, and accessibility of existing data on the distribution and abundance of non-native plants, animals, and diseases, at local, state, national and international levels
Opportunities for the Trilateral
• Suggest adoption of I3N model at global hubs level
• Encourage creation of identification aids
• Promote interoperability of databases
• Develop (fund?) tool kit for regional hubs
