Got data in your database? Have you shared it? Is your data
available via one or more other websites? Can you get enhanced,
modified, standardized, georeferenced, annotated data from these
sites back into your database? Re-integrating data can be
challenging for many reasons.
A new Data Management Interest Group at iDigBio plans to discuss
issues surrounding shared data. We'd like to document the help,
information, and infrastructure the community needs in order to
re-integrate data. If you need help, please come to this meeting and
share what issues you face. If you have ideas for how to help,
please join us.
