Abstract. In this Darwin Core Hour we will follow up in the series on
aggregator perspectives with a view from VertNet. Though the taxonomic
scope of VertNet as a biodiversity data aggregator is focused on
Chordates, VertNet serves a broader biodiversity data mobilization role
that has no taxonomic or geographic boundaries. As an Associate
Participant in GBIF, VertNet is also involved in a wide variety of other
community services, including the development of, promotion of, and
training on biodiversity data standards and data quality. In this
webinar we will explore the series of services that VertNet provides,
such as migration and data quality processes, as well as its unique
extracting and searching capabilities, which allow content such as trait
data (e.g., body mass and length) to be sought and retrieved. We will
discuss VertNet's role in the broader data mobilization framework and
how that relates to other biodiversity data sharing initiatives.
As always, we encourage people to bring or submit questions and to have
open discussions in each webinar.
