The [https://epandda.org/ ePANDDA project] is connecting the [https://paleobiodb.org/ Paleobiology Database], [https://idigpaleo.org/ iDigPaleo], and [https://www.idigbio.org/ iDigBio], to allow for seamless data discovery among the three databases. It is a new application programming interface (API), created as a collaboration by members of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, the CU Boulder Museum of Natural History, Florida State University, George Mason University, and the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History. ePANDDA (enhancing Paleontological and Neontological Data Discovery) is also available on [https://github.com/ePandda GitHub]. | ||
Hackathon participants will beta-test performance of the ePANDDA application programming interface (API) in connecting these three resources, as well as use the API for their own research, outreach, and collections purposes. While some demo software tools have been created that display these connections, this hackathon will focus primarily on using the API, and, as such, programming experience is expected. | Hackathon participants will beta-test performance of the ePANDDA application programming interface (API) in connecting these three resources, as well as use the API for their own research, outreach, and collections purposes.
