The Technical Architecture Group is a Functional Subcommittee (FS) of the TDWG Executive - responsible for ensuring that TDWG standards work effectively with each other and with standards used more widely in natural and information sciences. This is done primarily by giving technical advice to the Executive Committee and Interest and Task Groups, as requested and through reviewing Interest and Task Group charters, reports, and draft standards.
The charter of the group can be viewed at https://www.tdwg.org/about/committees/tag/.
