Physical sample metadata handling and tracing #27

Open hmsnaith opened 7 months ago

hmsnaith commented 7 months ago

Through international legislation - BBNJ (Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction) there will be a requirement to identify and trace the location (and data created from) physical samples collected in international waters that could be used for genetic analysis. This will have implications for sample management and traceability of metadata on sample collection This should be best practise for all physical sample collection How will (will?) MEDIN standards and metadata support best best practise in sample metadata management?
