| Matthew Aiello-Lammens || Building better species distribution models with the Wallace R package || The availability of publicly accessible biodiversity data is increasing rapidly as museums and herbaria digitize their holdings, and as citizen science projects mature and expand. These data provide large datasets of species occurrences, which can be analyzed using species distribution modeling approaches. The Wallace R package provides a means to access large datasets and guidance to appropriately build these models using state-of-the-art methods.

| Patricia Cruse || Where Should I Put My Data: the Repository Finder Tool || Researchers in earth and space sciences often need help identifying an appropriate data repository to deposit their data.The Repository Finder tool helps researchers in the Earth, Space, and Environmental Sciences find an appropriate repository to deposit their research data, using information about more than 2,000 data repositories from re3data. The service is developed as part of the Enabling FAIR Data Project.

| Karl Benedict || Introduction to distributed version control with Git and Github || Have you ever wished you could go back in time? Needed to share a snapshot of your work with someone while continuing to make changes? If your answer is yes to these questions you might want to consider adding version control to your life. This workshop will provide an introduction to the Git version control system and GitHub as a platform for sharing your version-controlled work (even with just yourself).
