we need there to be Audubon Core metadata file, with one record to go with each media record, and we can provide coaching to help you create that file. The more you can flesh out the details of the image, the more likely it will be to be highly retrievable. | we need there to be Audubon Core metadata file, with one record to go with each media record, and we can provide coaching to help you create that file.

just like the ownership of catalog records, the media records need to provided freely and with permission, and each record needs to have at least Creative Commons permission = "CC BY" | just like the ownership of catalog records, the media records need to provided freely and with permission, and each record needs to have at least Creative Commons permission = "CC BY" | ||
:I would avoid the word ownership, if at all possible to help the community get around this issue. This reinforces ideas / misconceptions about data (and copyright, and intellectual property, etc). Something like this for number 2 below. | |||
::You have permission to contribute this dataset to iDigBio. | |||
for number 3. do we need to explain or justify? how about | |||
::Data Format choices | |||
:::[http://code.google.com/p/gbif-ecat/wiki/DwCArchive DarwinCore archive format] OR | |||
:::CSV files mapped to [http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/index.htm Darwin Core] (and other relevant standards, example [http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/Audubon_Core_Term_List Audubon Core]) | |||
::Data Transfer | |||
:::Darwin Core Archive files harvest via IPT and RSS | |||
:::CSV files via (...) | |||
for number 4, please add UTF-8 reference. something like: | |||
:UTF-8 encoding preferred (should be required). | |||
::validate that "special characters" (diacritics like umlauts, tilde, cedilla) are correct in your dataset. | |||

====Data | ==Data Requirements== | ||
===Data Records=== | |||
#all specimen records need to have a GUID in each digital record: a persistent globally unique identifier | |||
#you need to have <strike>ownership</strike> of the data in the case of your being its source, on the other hand if you are an aggregator, you need to have the owner's permission to send it to us. | |||
#we would like it to be available to our harvester via IPT and RSS if possible, otherwise in DarwinCore format in a CSV file would work too. | |||
#dates in ISO 8601 format, i.e., YYYY-MM-DD | |||
#caution to preserve diacritics in people and place names. | |||
