Abstract
The Living Atlases project, facilitated by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA), has successfully operated for more than a decade, establishing collaborations with over 30 countries who have implemented ALA components within their respective environments. Over this period, technological advancements and the prevalence of cloud platforms have transformed the landscape of infrastructure management. In this presentation, we will explore innovative approaches to streamline the installation process of ALA, capitalizing on the benefits offered by cloud platforms and cutting-edge technologies. Furthermore, ALA has maintained a strong collaborative partnership with GBIF over the past four years, focusing on data ingestion pipelines and, more recently, engaging in shared user interface (UI) development.
These improvements aim to enhance the maintainability of ALA modules, enabling organizations to leverage the advantages provided by cloud-based solutions and novel technologies.
