Darwin Core Hour + 2BBQs: Imagining a global gazetteer of georeferences
by Paula Zermoglio 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

A new *Darwin Core (DwC) Hour + 2BBQs!* are almost here: *Imagining a global gazetteer of georeferences* [image: Promotion_v2.jpg] This Darwin Core Hour will consist of a 1hs Webinar and two 2hs BBQ sessions. Please see Webinar and BBQs Details and Meeting Links at https://www.idigbio.org/content/darwin-core-hour-2-bbqs-imagining-global-ga… *Abstract:* We want our georeferencing to be just right: complete, as accurate as possible, and usable for research. However, it takes a great effort and resources to do so, right? Although the majority of the records shared online are not georeferenced, we have invested a huge, collective effort already; there ARE a lot of georeferenced locations already published. In GBIF, for example, there are >54M unique location strings that are georeferenced, affecting >530M occurrence records. We know that many collection/observation sites tend to be repeated across institutions and even taxa. Could we take advantage of all the effort already invested by the community? Could we use those georeferences to complete records that do not have them? The answer is: (probably) yes, and it would be awesome! In this Darwin Core Hour and BBQ we will present and discuss the idea of building a global gazetteer of georeferenced localities for everyone to use. When: 1. *Darwin Core Hour Time (~1 Hour **13:00 to 14:00 UTC)*: 9:00 AM EDT, 10:00 AM ART, 14:00 BST, 15:00 CEST, 13:00 GMT Click for your local time <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20200504T1300> . 2. *Darwin Core Hour BBQ 1* (Monday 4 May 2020, 14:00 to 16:00 UTC) 3. *Darwin Core Hour BBQ 2* (Thursday 7 May 2020, 20:00-22:00 UTC <http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20200507T2000>) 4:00 PM EDT, 5:00 PM ART, 9:00 PM BST, 10:00 PM CEST, 20:00 GMT EXTRAS: - Explore the Darwin Core Questions & Answers wiki: https://github.com/tdwg/dwc-qa/wiki - See which of your questions have been asked and answered so far: https://github.com/tdwg/dwc-qa/issues - Submit your question / volunteer (yourself or someone) to do a webinar on a darwin core topic: https://tinyurl.com/zja2muz Happy Darwin Core and Data Quality, and hope to see you soon!

Your Part In a Pursuit of a Worldwide Collection Catalogue
by Deborah Paul 19 Apr '20

19 Apr '20

Hi TDWG folks, RE: Your Part In a Pursuit of a Worldwide Collection Catalogue Some of you work with / in collections, or know people that do, or support gathering, using and discovery of bio/geo-collections data. Please participate in this event (see next) and encourage your colleagues (FB, Twitter, email, etc). Thanks! Please note that at least some of the content is available in Spanish, Chinese (simplified), and French in an effort to make it easier for more folks to participate. Español: Adelantando el Catálogo de Colecciones de Historia Natural del Mundo 13 <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://discourse.gbif.org/t/adelantando-el-cat…> Français: Faire avancer le Catalogue des Collections d’Histoire Naturelle du Monde <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://discourse.gbif.org/t/progressant-le-cat…> 简体中文: 建立《全球自然历史馆藏名录》 <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://discourse.gbif.org/t/topic/2039__;!!PhO…> Right now (through April 27th) you have a unique opportunity to add your voice to an online consultation about Advancing the Catalogue of the World’s Natural History Collections. Please help to capture the value of collections and your insights about potential for them as well that will help shape a new online resource. Please start here: https://discourse.gbif.org/t/advancing-the-catalogue-of-the-worlds-natural-… A few example Technical and Information questions that need your experience and insights: * Would the collections community benefit from a comprehensive directory of all natural history collections? * Who would make use of such a directory? * How should ownership and access control for collection records be managed? * What interfaces and APIs are required to maximise access to the collection catalogue? * What is the best way to include these communities as part of an interconnected solution? * Is there a role for content to be created and improved by a wider audience (e.g. through Wikidata)? * What is required to ensure that this meets the needs of collections and is fully adopted and owned by the collections community? * What challenges need to be addressed to minimise duplication of content and effort within an integrated catalogue? * How can the catalogue best support diverse user communities, including speakers of different languages? * How should appropriate editors be recognised and validated? * What do these communities require to be able to carry out their work efficiently and support their collections? * What present or future requirements are there for interfaces directly between CMS platforms and the collection catalogue? * Are there special opportunities that should be considered? * Could CMS platforms become a source of metadata for institutional collections within a global catalogue? * Which existing tools, databases and websites can help to mobilise and maintain collection records? * Is it possible to identify additional tools or pathways that need to be developed or supported Please share this call with your colleagues too so that input can truly be worldwide and cross-discipline. We're very much looking forward to talking with you in the forum (at GBIF) where the questions are posted. We are waiting for you.

While many of you are familiar with Darwin Core, you may not know ABCD. Similarly, lots of you know and use the GBIF Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT) used to package up the data into an archive file that aggregators like iDigBio and GBIF can ingest. ABCD and BioCASe quite different than Darwin Core and IPT in scope and function. Curious? Note about 100 institutions worldwide use ABCD and BioCASe to share their biocollections data. Find out more, join us for this Darwin Core Hour. Note this webinar is targeted at data managers, but is also designed for those without deep IT knowledge.

The 2020-01-27 version of Audubon Core has been released by the Audubon Core Maintenance Group. This is the first revision of the Audubon Core standard since its ratification in 2013. The changes made in this version have been primarily to clarify term metadata and clean up the documents containing normative content. Any implementers of Audubon Core should carefully read the release notes at https://github.com/tdwg/ac/blob/master/historical/release-notes-2020-01-27.… Steve Baskauf, Audubon Core Maintenance Group convener on behalf of the group -- Steven J.
