Value
Curatorial assessment rates this product highly on Identification, Usage, and Strategy/mission/research (avg. 4.6/5 across its top three scored dimensions), indicating it is well positioned for external licensing relative to other NHM holdings. Its breadth and depth of coverage make it suitable as a comprehensive reference dataset rather than a niche sample.
