The EDIT Platform for Cybertaxonomy has been developed over the past years to support the full taxonomic workflow and to serve as an information broker for all types of biodiversity data. Though a focus has been set on taxon level data it covers all relevant data types from literature to DNA alignment . In the early phase focusing on core functionality it now aims for a deeper integration into existing biodiversity infrastructure landscape by making use of its service oriented architecture.

The workshop will present the current state of the Platform and intends to discuss new features to further integrate the Platform.
