BDR Vocabularies

About

This web page lists vocabularies - controlled lists of terms - maintained for the Biodiversity Data Repository (BDR) and managed by the BDR Team at the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW).

This web page is only a temporary home for these vocabularies and they will soon be managed with more powerful vocabulary publication tooling. This page is intended to quickly display a few needed vocabulary items such as specialised data types.
