WCMC’s range of services continue to grow in diversity. Every year we manage a portfolio of over a hundred projects, we work on environmental reporting issuing information in support of other’s activities and provide biodiversity data for environmental emergencies.

Some of the services we currently offer to all clients are:

Bespoke reports: tailored to defined user needs, including information ranging from maps and descriptions of protected areas to lists of key contacts.

Biodiversity profiles: drawing information together to brief users on biodiversity issues world wide, allowing you to focus your information needs further before dealing with specialists at national (or lower) levels.

Biodiversity summaries: information on particular species or habitats, to support the development of conservation programmes.

Biodiversity mapping: researching new information and incorporating into our data sets; producing specialist maps; adding your data to maps.

Analyses of information: such as reviews of the coverage of particular habitat types by protected areas, or the proximity of species locations to transport networks.

Information on laws and regulations: helping industry with compliance issues, or advising on country obligations under international biodiversity related conventions.

Emergency response and contingency planning information: information for emergency responses to protect key sites and species from any damaging effects from oil spills, forest fires or war. High-risk areas and industries may require additional information in order to develop contingency plans.

Access to Extranet sites: WCMC plans to make our GIS datasets available over the Internet using innovative Internet Map Server technology.

Location of supporting materials: Our Resource Centre holds both published and unpublished expert sources.
