# Restoration Scope for Biodiversity

Monitoring data, connected to its context. Bring species observations, survey sites and supporting media into one operational view. Keep the evidence connected to where, when and how it was collected.

Our biodiversity work is early: one engagement so far. These examples show how the wider platform can support monitoring workflows.

## Keep observations connected to the monitoring work.

A starting point to configure with your field and research teams.

### Organize the sites and survey visits.

Link monitoring locations with sampling events and the people collecting the records. Keep the survey context available alongside each observation.

### Keep observations and media together.

Bring species records and supporting photos into the same view. Review the information collected at a site without moving between separate files and map layers.

### Make review part of the workflow.

Configure the fields and review steps your team needs to check incoming observations. Keep unresolved records visible and prepare selected information for collaborators.

## Connect your data

Connect the tools, field records and geospatial sources your team already uses. For example: KoboToolbox, Google Sheets, Excel, QGIS. [All data connections](https://restorationscope.com/data-connections).

## Questions from monitoring teams

### Is this already a mature biodiversity solution?

Not yet. We have one engagement in this area. The page describes an application of the shared platform that we would shape with your team.

### Can the records follow our sampling protocol?

We can configure the record structure around sites, survey visits and observations. Protocol-specific requirements need to be worked through during setup.

### Can we bring existing observations and photos?

We review the source data and media with you, define their relationships and prepare the import or connection.
