Publishing your data in iDigBio is as simple as sending a personal email to [mailto:data@idigbio.org data@idigbio.org] to say where to pick it up for ingestion. If you need help compiling it into the acceptable formats, then get in touch with us to express your interest, and we'll help with what you currently have. Establish contact first. Unless you are thinking about mobilizing your data via our IPT, no data should change hands. If you want to have your data ingested by the portal, you would be sending a link a Darwin Core archive on an RSS feed. | |||
