Subject goals and competencies:

Ecoinformatics is the science of information (informatics) in ecology and environmental science. It integrates environmental and information science to define entities and natural language processes common to people and computers. EcoInformatics aims to facilitate research and management of the environment by developing ways of accessing, integrating environmental information databases and developing new algorithms that allow the combination of different environmental databases to test the environmental hypotheses. https://cals.wisc.edu/ecoinformatics/ https://www.witpress.com/Secure/elibrary/papers/9781845642075/9781845642075003FU1.pdf
