Since 2011, the NSF-ADBC program has funded 20 Thematic Collection Networks (TCNs) and 24 Partners to Existing Networks (PENs). The role of TCNs is to mobilize a community of museums and herbaria to provide specimen related data and media to iDigBio. Additionally, they collaborate with each other and iDigBio to promote the use of digitization products for research and education. As part of its role in advising iDigBio, the [[IDigBio External Advisory Board]] (EAB) wants to better understand the relationship between iDigBio and the TCNs in order to assess how iDigBio is meeting community needs.<br><br> | Since 2011, the NSF-ADBC program has funded 20 Thematic Collection Networks (TCNs) and 24 Partners to Existing Networks (PENs).

Collections, aggregators, data re-packagers, publishers, researchers, and external user groups form a complex web of data connections and pipelines. This forms the natural history infrastructure essential for collections use by an ever increasing and diverse external user community. We have made great strides in developing the individual actors within this system and we are now well poised to utilize these capabilities to address big picture questions. We need to continue work on the individual aspects, but the focus now needs to be on integration of the functionality provided by the actors involved in the pipeline to facilitate the transfer of data between them with as few human interventions as possible. In order for the system to function efficiently and to the benefit of all parties, information, data, and resources need not only to be integrated efficiently but flow in the reverse direction (attribution) to facilitate collections advocacy and sustainability. For instance, there are benefits to collections from inclusion into aggregators and subsequent use by researchers and publishers that are not being realized. The Biodiversity Collections Network (BCoN) is planning a program of workshops in conjunction with other groups to perform a needs assessment to identify gaps and problems in the data pipeline and explore future steps in coordinating efforts, providing solutions and standardizing tools and methods. This talk will explore this landscape and highlight BCoN’s efforts in this regard while soliciting participation from actors in the pipeline and the community at large.<br><br> | Collections, aggregators, data re-packagers, publishers, researchers, and external user groups form a complex web of data connections and pipelines.

The role of TCNs is to mobilize a community of museums and herbaria to provide specimen related data and media to iDigBio. Additionally, they collaborate with each other and iDigBio to promote the use of digitization products for research and education. As part of its role in advising iDigBio, the IDigBio External Advisory Board (EAB) wants to better understand the relationship between iDigBio and the TCNs in order to assess how iDigBio is meeting community needs. |

1:15-2:30 | Unavailable | Group Discussion: Data Integration, Attribution and Interoperability (Andy Bentley) Collections, aggregators, data re-packagers, publishers, researchers, and external user groups form a complex web of data connections and pipelines. This forms the natural history infrastructure essential for collections use by an ever increasing and diverse external user community. We have made great strides in developing the individual actors within this system and we are now well poised to utilize these capabilities to address big picture questions. We need to continue work on the individual aspects, but the focus now needs to be on integration of the functionality provided by the actors involved in the pipeline to facilitate the transfer of data between them with as few human interventions as possible. In order for the system to function efficiently and to the benefit of all parties, information, data, and resources need not only to be integrated efficiently but flow in the reverse direction (attribution) to facilitate collections advocacy and sustainability. For instance, there are benefits to collections from inclusion into aggregators and subsequent use by researchers and publishers that are not being realized. The Biodiversity Collections Network (BCoN) is planning a program of workshops in conjunction with other groups to perform a needs assessment to identify gaps and problems in the data pipeline and explore future steps in coordinating efforts, providing solutions and standardizing tools and methods. This talk will explore this landscape and highlight BCoN’s efforts in this regard while soliciting participation from actors in the pipeline and the community at large. |

WeDigBio Planning Meeting (Austin Mast and Libby Ellwood) After a brief introduction to the annual Worldwide Engagement for Digitizing Biocollections (WeDigBio) event, participants will brainstorm new innovations for WeDigBio 2018, including the development of a virtual science festival (e.g., on the Sococo platform) and virtual reality collections tours and field experiences. |
Legal Issues with Collections (Linda S. Ford) As biodiversity collections are increasingly available online, they will be under increasing scrutiny. The Nagoya Protocol – a supplementary agreement to the Convention on Biological Diversity – has important implications for the conduct of U.S. biological collections, especially those whose data are available digitally. Knowledge of the protocol is not widespread among researchers or institutions. This session will discuss legal concerns associated with digitized collections and mitigating these issues using digital means. Compliance with the Nagoya Protocol will be a test case to evaluate how institutions must respond to requirements for increased transparency and digital tracking. |
oVert/MorphoSource Working Group (David Blackburn) Hands-on demonstration of issues related to DOIs, iDigBio integration, etc. |
Meeting of the iDigBio student group (open to all students)
The iDigBio student group plans to write a review paper about use cases of natural history collection data, which will simultaneously summarize resources for using the iDigBio database. We hope to address some of the roadblocks that prevent digital data use and create a repository of codes/methods etc. that can be used and referenced to overcome these issues. In the process of creating the review paper we will in situ highlight the work that iDigBio students, researchers and other users have done thus far, and can do in the future with this rich database. Join us to discuss the process for creating the review paper (including formalizing the iDigBio student group, a discussion of individual responsibilities and deadlines etc.). |

Three Insect Projects (Neil Cobb, Crystal Maier, Jen Zaspel, Catherine Hulshof, Akito Kawahra, Caitlin Chapman) Agenda 1. Database Before You Label Protocol 2. Inselect and insect soups (Jen and Neil) 3. Puerto Rico Hurricane support: Developing a reference base for a re-survey of butterflies (Catherine) Database Before You Label Protocol: Finalize workflow(s) for rapidly digitizing material from "collecting events", especially where a large amount of material is brought into the collection from inventories. The workflow is database neutral (Arctos [Derek Sikes], EMu [Crystal Maier], institutional [Chris Marshall], Specify [AndrewShort], Symbiota [ Neil Cobb]), it will be scalable from small to large institutions, and it will be cross-phyla functional (e.g., plants/herbaria, insects/museums). Develop strategy to ensure all museums adopt workflow.
Inselect: With the newer DSLR cameras that have 50 megapixel capacity it is possible that many museums might be able to use Inselect https://vimeo.com/160792078 can be used more widely. Puerto Rico: Catherine Hulshof (U. of Puerto Rico) will discuss a Puerto Rican-Caribbean Lepidoptera project to study butterfly (maybe some moths) recovery/recolonization of areas destroyed. We will develop a strategy to have museums digitize their holdings of Puerto Rican/Caribbean butterflies as a good reference data set. Session Notes: https://goo.gl/YUCSy5 | ||||||||||||||||

1:30-3:15 | Unavailable | Building a Local Carpentries Community (Matt Collins, Deborah Paul) The capacity to manage, manipulate, and analyze data is important to modern research programs. Ensuring research staff and students have access to the education and learning opportunities to maintain their development is the role of PIs, program heads, and institutional directors. Peer teaching and learning communities provide a learner-lead environment that is easy to foster and support in parallel with formal structures like academic curricula and professional development. We will describe our experiences at UF and FSU developing a community centered around the Data and Software Carpentry organizations to advance the informatics capacity of our organizations. |
Broadening Participation & Biodiversity Literacy in Undergraduate Education (BLUE) (Anna Monfils, Molly Phillips, Libby Ellwood) This session is an introduction and invitation to participate in two new initiatives related to biodiversity education: Biodiversity Literacy in Undergraduate Education (BLUE) a newly funded RCN-UBE, and the Broadening Participation in Biodiversity Sciences Working Group. Following a brief presentation on the two project’s upcoming activities and opportunities, facilitators will lead participants in a discussion focusing on the following: 1) What core data skills do all undergraduate biology students need to access and interpret data from digital natural history collection archives? 2) What resources are currently available for introductory biology instructors wanting to use collections based digital data in the classroom? and 3) What resources are available to biodiversity scientists seeking to broaden participation of underrepresented groups in the biodiversity sciences. |
iDigBio Office "Hour" (Shari Ellis) This session is an open forum to interact with iDigBio staff. Come ask questions and/or brainstorm about other topics related to iDigBio's interaction among ADBC. |
Specify meeting (Andy Bentley) Specify software manages species and specimen data for biological research collections with a full suite of software: desktop, web, and iPad applications, as well as cloud-based hosting. With new versions of Specify 6 and 7 having just been released with additional features to support the GGBN data model as well as data publishing, this session will be a drop in session that will include a short status update of Specify, a quick overview of key features, and discussion of our future vision. There will be time for Q & A and help desk problem solving/support and an opportunity to discuss TCN issues with Specify. |
