Geocase/geological collections publishing #109

Closed rukayaj closed 1 year ago

rukayaj commented 2 years ago

Eirik wants to get the geological collections published on https://geocase.eu/. Geocase were asking for either DwC format, or ABCD (+ EFG) https://geocase.eu/efg which means cooooomplicated xml, which E and I agree does not really make sense for the simple data that we have.

So seeing as it's going to be DwC, Eirik was asking about the possibility of using the IPT to make the eml, and map and generate the data. And we have such a nice easy way to spin up IPTs now and so much space to fill on Sigma2 I suggest we just spin up an IPT for geological collections, and that can be used for geocase's harvesting :)

I set up https://uio-geology.ipt.gbif.no/

Just so we remember - yesterday we removed this uio-geology ipt again and decided to just put it on the main IPT. Also we made Irina an acc there, and she will publish the data (but I think not register with GBIF).

Their data is in an MS Access db. We showed them how to export to excel, and then import that into the ipt and fill in the metadata and do the mapping - they might need to do something about date formatting here, if so I think they said they were going to get help from Vidar.

For the mapping - they are going to do what makes sense to them and then work it out with geocase.

They currently have images of rock specimens stored in MUSIT, and will probably continue to do that and migrate with all the other specimen images eventually if necessary.

So I think for the moment we have done what we can, we can reopen if we need to help them more.

CETAF invites for a GEOCASe Workshop

Register Here

Location: Naturalis, Darwinweg 2, 2333 CR Leiden, Netherlands

Date/Duration: Two Half-day event, DAY 1: 26th June 2023 (12:30 - 17:30 CEST); DAY 2: (9:00 - 13:00)

Hosts: Naturalis & CETAF Earth Science Group

Preliminary Agenda:

New GeoCASe Manual (Draft):

Benefits of attending the workshop

The main objective of the workshop is to spread knowledge about the use of the BioCASe software and to mobilize geological specimen data to GeoCASe. By the end of the workshop, the participants will:

know how to set-up a new dataset Map the data to the ABCD-EFG standard, and mobilise it to GeoCASe This is a great opportunity to gain practical experience. Participants will bring at least one of their own Earth Science data sets, and then will be shown step-by-step how to export the data to GeoCASe.

The work shop will have limited capacity, 1st come 1st serve basis. CETAF and DiSSCo members will be given priority. Participant will have to pay for their own accommodation and travel. Lunch and Coffee Breaks will be provided by Naturalis. Please read the Preliminary Agenda (Below) for further information and prerequisites for the workshop.

Yes, we took it down:

I forgot about the geocase workshop, I don't think anyone attended it. But the dataset is published so I think it's ok to close this issue again, or is there something we should do here?
