CHAS Mamm Links to USNM #6467

Closed Jegelewicz closed 3 months ago

Jegelewicz commented 1 year ago

@wellerjes The attached file can be loaded to the identifiers bulkload tool to add links from your mammal records to the associated Smithsonian records. Let me know if you have any questions! CHAS_Mamm_Smithsonian_ARKs.csv

I tried to do the same for the birds - but none of the records seemed to match. For example

https://arctos.database.museum/guid/CHAS:Bird:62

has an identifier USNM-53376 and is identified as Charadrius wilsonia

but when I search the Smithsonian bird data at https://collections.nmnh.si.edu/search/birds/ for catalog number = 53376, it seems to be a completely different thing:

I tried about 5 and none of them matched or the catalog number was not found. I'm wondering if these are really USNM numbers or if they are some kind of USNM expedition number...

done?

Jegelewicz commented 8 months ago

The mammal links have never been added. I will email them to see if we can get this done.

Jessica and Dawn,

Happy New Year! Do you want to add the links mentioned in this issue? https://github.com/ArctosDB/arctos/issues/6467

Let me know if you need any help. Please close the issue when you are done or if you don't want to add the links.

Thanks!
