<p>Hi Everyone!<br>
<br>
At this Darwin Core Hour (DCH): it is VertNet's turn to share what
happens to museum specimen data when it is shared with them as
data aggregator.</p>

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.<br>
As always, we encourage people to bring or submit questions and to
have open discussions in each webinar.<br>
