Introduction: The natural geography of the China-Mongolia-Russia economic corridor is complex and diverse, the ecological environment is fragile and sensitive, and desertification is a serious problem. This knowledge service application is to diagnose the pattern and change of desertification along the China-Mongolia railway (Mongolia section) from 1990 to 2015. This knowledge applied the object-oriented remote sensing image interpretation method to obtain the desertification data with a resolution of 30 meters within 200 kilometers on both sides of the China-Mongolian railway (Mongolia section) in 1990, 2010 and 2015 for the first time. It can be used to study the risk assessment of desertification in China-Mongolia railway, providing an important basis for preventing sandstorms, floods and other disasters caused by desertification and alleviating the negative impact of desertification.

Introduction: Disasters are increasing globally. The Asian region suffers the maximum impacts of the disasters in terms of the numbers of affected people as well as human and economic losses. The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 was adopted at the Third UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction to prevent new, and reduce existing risk and to strengthen resilience to natural and man-made hazards, in order to achieve substantial reductions in disaster losses. This international commitment is also marked in both the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement on climate change, thus disaster risk reduction has become an integral part of global effort to pursue sustainable development goals (SDGs). Disaster prevention and risk reduction should be recognized as critical issue of development safety, and be reflected in the overall national development policy.

Introduction: The earth is experiencing a dangerous status because of the faster and faster speed of biodiversity losses. The management and sharing of biodiversity data is the basis and pre-condition of biodiversity protection. From the global view, the example projects of CoL(Catalogue of Life), GBIF(Global Biodiversity Information Facility), EOL(Encyclopedia of Life), BHL(Biodiversity Heritage Library) and BOLD Systems had paved a good basis of biodiversity research. And other projects like WDPA(World Database on Protected Areas) and IUCN Redlist gave other thematic biodiversity data. These portals also provide some tools and APIs which made data application and sharing easier. In China, biodiversity data are distributed in different portals funded by Ministry of S&T, Chinese Academy of Sciences and different institutes. In recent years, more and more collaborative international or regional projects are carried out, for example the MAP(Mapping Asia Plants). China will play an important role in the collaborative activities in the Asia and One Belt and One Road area.
