Agricultural Information Management Standards

Agricultural Information Management Standards (AIMS) is a web site managed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) for accessing and discussing agricultural information management standards, tools and methodologies connecting information workers worldwide to build a global community of practice.

The success of AIMS depends upon its communities reaching a critical mass to show that the investment in interoperability standards has a return.

They are intended to discuss and share information about the different ongoing initiatives under the AIMS umbrella.

AIMS supports collaboration through forums and blogs amongst institutions and individuals that wish to share expertise on how to use tools, standards and methodologies.

Moreover, news and events are published on AIMS as part of its ‘one-stop” access to interoperability and reusability of information resources.
