RECOMMENDATION 15: NATIONAL & REGIONAL HUB SERVICE STRATEGY

A national service strategy for the biological recording infrastructure in Scotland should seek to perennially grow the contribution of the Infrastructure in support of the National Outcomes for Scotland.

NBN National and Regional Hub Partners should report on their engagement across all sectors to demonstrate the extent to which active involvement in biological recording and the availability of a national biodiversity evidence base (through the NBN Atlas) aids the National Outcomes and provides value for Scotland. The NBN Trust should develop the use of performance reporting and data visualisation tools to support this.
