*Moderator*: Erica Krimmel, from the Darwin Core Hour Team

The most recent webinar of the DarwinCore Hour series https://github.com/tdwg/dwc-qa/wiki/Webinars#chapter15 provided an introduction to the BioCASe Provider Software https://www.biocase.org/ and the Access to Biological Collections Data standard https://abcd.tdwg.org/ (ABCD). */This follow-up seminar/* will show this tool in action: After installing BioCASe as a Docker container we will connect it to a small sample database, create the mapping for ABCD and show how a BioCASe installation can be tested, debugged, and/used to query datasets./ The webinar is intended for a non-technical audience, only for the first part (installing the software from a Docker image) some knowledge about the Docker https://www.docker.com/ virtualization platform is advantageous.
