. Data flow model: in the context of the Convention on Biological Diversity. . Figure : Conceptual View of a Cooperative Clearing House Network Note that datastore is a generic term, and refers to any logically related collection of data. The data or information held in a datastore may not be all physically in the same instimtion, and may be in hard copy and/or electronic forms. In this document, the overall operation is the implementation of the CBD within a country. The content of the datastores depicted in the data flow diagrams in Sections 2 and 3 outline the basic categories of information required. The detailed specification of the databases required to store and process these data must be determined by individual countries on the basis of their own particular needs and priorities, and the information management capabilities in place. However, given the underlying nature of the data, plus the kind of analyses and outputs frequently required, it is suggested that where computer systems are employed, the most effective solution is a relational database management system (RDBMS) linked to a Geographic Information System (GIS). The former allows extensive manipulation and reporting of non-spatial data, and the GIS extends these functions into the spatial domain, allowing data sources to be integrated and analyzed to provide outputs in a variety of forms, including graphs, tables and maps. In the text, processes are identified in italics, and datastores in bold italics. 10 Data Flow Model - Document 1.
