From client (Gen Perkins - BC State of Environment Reporting):

Hi Annika,

I am working with Andy Teucher with State of Environment Reporting. We are currently updating our grizzly bear indicator and helping to prepare the data to add to the data catalogue.

One of the current datasets is a .gdb, I was wondering if your had a recommendation for data types for the data catalogue. My preference is to use a geopackage, but it looks like this is not common format for the catalogue.

I am happy to give you a call if this is easier to chat. Many thanks, Gen
