Closed ekrimmel closed 5 years ago

ekrimmel commented 6 years ago

Want a webinar to cover how Arctos models spatial data and what tools it has to handle spatial data needs.

@mkoo volunteered to present.

Tentatively scheduled for February 2018.

Potential abstract: Arctos is both a community and a collection management information system. It provides fundamental research infrastructure for biodiversity data, and is intended for curators, collection managers, investigators, educators, and anyone interested in natural and cultural history. Over 3 million records are publicly available from 20+ collaborating institutions.

This webinar will introduce the model Arctos uses for locality information, then describe geospatial tools available for georeferencing, searching, visualizing, etc.

Scheduled with iDigBio but probably need to reschedule as Michelle may be out of town

Postponed until geography is less of a moving target.
