PRBO Conservation Science Benefits to AKN Partners Avian Knowledge Network Collaborative approach ensures longevity. AKN is linked with all major avian data management activities (BISON, DataONE, GBIF, and hopefully IPAC in the coming years). Gains in efficiency building upon existing infrastructure. User-centered focus ensures end product is helpful!
