Greetings All,
RE: Balancing Global Agency and Local Precision. Roundtrip your feedback at TaxonWorks Together 2024 Presenter: David Shorthouse Where: online, free Register: https://together.taxonworks.org/ When: 8 May 2024 (next Wednesday) at 15:00 UTC (10:00 CDT).
Many of us, as data providers and data aggregators need to both give and receive feedback about our data. A new proposed Darwin Core term: feedbackURL could provide a feasible -- actionable -- step forward. See SEE: https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/180 <SEE: https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/180%3E. If you'd like to learn more about this and how it might work for you, if you'd like to add to the conversation, please join us at TaxonWorks Together for the talk: Balancing Global Agency and Local Precision. Roundtrip your feedback. David Shorthouse presents this topic to share his take and insights on the potential in this term for all of us.
It's exciting to be talking about implementing solutions that could help data providers get feedback directly. Hope to see you there!
Note there are related sessions you might find interesting:
* A Data Quality Round Table Conversation: with GBIF, iDigBio, TaxonWorks, the Paleo Data Working Group, Robert Mesibov, and You o From data quality (e. g. completeness, consistency, compliance), to data management, expect an in-depth congenial local-to-global conversation. From the data aggregator, to the working group, the researcher, the collection / data manager, and the data analyst, what do we each experience, what do we dream of? How is data-quality an outcome of processes? Looking for alignment opportunities. * A Look Inside One’s (TaxonWorks) Data o What’s in those buckets anyway in your database fields? How do you know where to find issues? When and how do you find snafus and how do you fix them? We explore the promise of the new Project vocab and Field Synchronize tasks in TaxonWorks. What are your processes and needs for doing this work to enhance and extend your data? How has the evolution of TaxonWorks illuminated outstanding data-quality challenges and what does it offer to make it eas(ier) to address them? + (pssst: if you know you me, you'll have heard me talk about visualizing the data in your databases, come see to get a taste of what this is making possible).
Your questions, welcome. Looking forward to seeing you there!
In anticipation, Debbie Paul, for the SFG and TaxonWorks Together 2024
