Thus far ~700,000 specimens have been databased and 9,000 localities have been georeferenced. Further, these data have been shared with iDigBio and provided on line via institutional websites. We have created online digital atlases, www.digitalatlasofancientlife.org, for more than 900 species from the time intervals studied. For each species ecological, stratigraphic, and taxonomic information is provided, along with images and geographic range maps. Our Digital Atlas of Ancient Life project is described in greater detail in an article in Palaeontologia Electronica in 2015. Our Digital Atlas of Ancient Life “App” is available at the Apple App Store for free download. Studies associated with the project have been published by the PIs in several journals including: Global Biogeography and Ecology; Journal of Biogeography; Paleobiology; and Proceedings of the Royal Society, Series B. A total of 9 graduate students (seven of them women), ten undergraduate students (eight of them women), and one female post-doctoral fellow received training and were supported by this project.
