Currently, only prefabricated charts and standard mapping tools are provided to analyze the statuses of threatened species in a visual form. This paper provides a series of visual interfaces that support the construction of dynamic queries, thus, offering new capabilities to investigate geospatial, species-related features and developments. The major goals are to better inform the broad public on the contents of the European Red List, and to improve the capabilities of biodiversity researchers in developing target-oriented conservation strategies.Visual Exploration of the European Red List10.2312/envirvis.2019110341-45
