B-Cubed Project
@b-cubed
EU-Funded #101059592 | 🌐 B-Cubed aims to transform biodiversity monitoring into an agile process to empower policymakers to address the impacts of #biodiversity change.
B-Cubed developed pipelines that translate raw biodiversity data into policy-relevant indicators 🌱📊 Today, we spotlight the third key component of these data pipelines 👉 Biodiversity Indicators 🔗 More about how you can use biodiversity indicators: b-cubed.eu/news/how-be-... #HowToBeCubed
Are open biodiversity data hosted in GBIF sufficient to monitor Wetlands of International Importance? 📊🤔 👉 Check out the full policy brief to learn more about the topic and our recommendations: zenodo.org/records/2150...
B-Cubed developed pipelines that translate raw biodiversity data into policy-relevant indicators 🌱📊 This time we spotlight the second key component of the data pipelines 👉 Modelled Cubes 🔗 More about how you can use modelled cubes: b-cubed.eu/news/how-be-... #HowToBeCubed
B-Cubed developed pipelines that translate biodiversity data into policy-relevant indicators 🌱📊 Over the coming weeks, we'll spotlight the key components of these pipelines, starting with 👉 Species Occurrence Cubes 🔗 More about how you can use the cubes: b-cubed.eu/news/how-be-... #HowToBeCubed

B-Cubed was spotted at the #BEeS2026 conference in Plovdiv, Bulgaria 👀 Stop by the shared booth with other EU Horizon projects and grab one of our policy briefs or new factsheets on the b3verse 📄🤩 💻 Policy briefs: b-cubed.eu/library?type... 🔗 About BEeS2026: www.lifewatch.eu/bees-2026/
🎉 Our policy brief on why countries need @gbif.org is now available in a total of 11 languages! 👉 The newest language additions are Spanish 🇪🇦 and Lithuanian 🇱🇹 🌐 Check out the policy brief in your own language on: zenodo.org/records/2081...
🌿 Today, at the #WBF2026, B-Cubed partners presented how biodiversity data cubes can turn observations into policy-relevant evidence. 📝 B-Cubed policy briefs are also present at our booth just in front of the Plenary hall Read the briefs here: b-cubed.eu/library?type...
📑 In a new policy brief, B-Cubed joins forces with @bmd-project.eu, @onestop-project.eu, @mambo-project.eu, Guarden Project, and #AURORA to address the data lag from collecting biodiversity data to creating policy-relevant information. 👉 Read the policy brief: zenodo.org/records/1993...
Should plants be better integrated in One Health? 🤔 We think so. In our new policy brief with @onestop-project.eu, we explain how to lessen the impact of plant-blindness in the #OneHealth framework 🌱 📑 Read more here: zenodo.org/records/1988...
👀 B-Cubed was spotted at #BMDmeets2026 🌐 @bmd-project.eu All-Hands Meeting also included updates on data harmonisation and information about the upcoming first version of the BMD data cubing engine 🟩 Learn more about the data cubes used as basis for the cubing engine: zenodo.org/records/1962...
🎉 Happy #BiodiversityDay! 🌱The theme this year, 'Act locally for global impact', is a call for us all to take action to halt and reverse biodiversity loss. 📑Check out our results to see how we contribute to this aim: zenodo.org/records/1962... @unbiodiversity.bsky.social #LocalAction
🚀 Ward Langeraert unveiled the #b3verse, a modular suite of twelve interconnected R packages that transform heterogeneous biodiversity data into standardized occurrence cubes and policy-relevant indicators. 🔎Explore the b3verse for yourself: docs.b-cubed.eu/guides/b3ver...
🌐Lina Estupinan-Suarez showed us how biodiversity data cubes are operationalised for open science and informed policy, allowing efficient data aggregation and harmonizing multiple data sources. 👉Check out some of the workflows we have developed to do that: b-cubed.eu/workflows
🌱Louise Hendrickxx made us look outside the box explaining how plants are essential for the OneHealth framework 👉Check out her key findings in our policy brief on the topic: zenodo.org/records/1982...
➡️Andrew Rodrigues (@gbif.org) introduced how species occurrence cubes bridge the gap between large-scale biodiversity data infrastructures and operational biodiversity monitoring and reporting. 🟩Download your own cube: docs.b-cubed.eu/guides/occur...
➡️Sandra MacFadyen showed how a reproducible workflow architecture for biodiversity monitoring can turn scattered records into indicators, enabling policymaking. 📑More on our policy brief: zenodo.org/records/1960...
💡In the first day of #BioMonWeek2026 we met some partners and talked about the future of biodiversity ➡️We start day 2️⃣ excited about session DT02 Data Workflows and Pipelines for WorkFlowHub starting at 11:30 🕐and featuring @gbif.org species occurrence cube. Stay tuned for more updates! 👀
After #BCubedFinal meeting yesterday, we are still in Montpellier for #BioMonWeek2026 🌱 ➡️Come visit us at the booth we share with @gbif.org Stay tuned for more updates 👀
➡️ #BCubedFinal wraps up with a joint session with @mambo-project.eu on newly started and upcoming EU projects like @onestop-project.eu, @bmd-project.eu, Bon-in-a-Box, GeoPlantNet, and #CamAlien that can help advance the results of B-Cubed and MAMBO 💡 More about them soon 👀
After sharing progress on our 4️⃣ case studies, we got together with @mambo-project.eu to learn more about the project and the technologies it developed for monitoring biodiversity 🔭 📝You can help them develop more technologies by filling the surveys: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...
➡️Last case study at #BCubedFinal sheds light on biodiversity status and trends at RAMSAR sites 📑It assesses how our tools and indicators help streamline national reporting to the RAMSAR Convention and contribute for global biodiversity policy alignment. 🔎 Learn more: b-cubed.eu/library?sear...
🌐Our next case study at #BCubedFinal focuses on revising South Africa’s national indicator framework for biological invasions and providing automation and standardisation of the process for species and site indicators that require spatial data. 📖Read some of our research: b-cubed.eu/library?sear...
#BCubedFinal continues with our case study on biological invasions in Flanders, a region in Europe rich in species occurrence data 🌱 ➡️Learn how we evaluate our tools’ performance and suitability for monitoring biodiversity trends in that region: b-cubed.eu/library?sear...
📣Kicking off #BCubedFinal with progress on our 4️⃣ case studies 👉First, our stakeholder-driven case study on optimising assessment and reporting under the Habitats Directive in Europe 📊 Explore how we assess the performance of our tools : b-cubed.eu/library?sear...
It seems that for B-Cubed, all roads lead to Montpellier 🇫🇷 B-Cubed is going to #BioMonWeek2026 📅 4-8 May 2026 But that’s not all! On 4️⃣ May, we will have our #BCubedFinal Meeting to take a look back at our progress in making #biodiversity #data more accessible
🌍 It is #EarthDay 2026! 👉This year’s theme #OurPowerOurPlanet reminds us that protecting #biodiversity is part of protecting the systems that underpin our health, livelihoods, and future
➡️Tomorrow, the final #BCubedTraining will focus on the b3verse, a comprehensive suite of interconnected R packages. 📊Participants will be introduced to the b3verse and how it can be used to retrieve, process, explore occurrence cubes and calculate indicators. 🔗More: b-cubed.eu/news/registr...
