Overview of the Georeferencing Working Group

The Georeferencing Working Group (GWG) currently consists of 11 members from across the biodiversity natural history collections community from east coast to west coast. If you'd like to get involved, simply contact any member of the iDigBio GWG.

As one of our first projects, we put together a workshop tailored for those with georeferencing experience focusing on training others to georeference. Check out the details at Train the Trainers workshop October 8 - 12, 2012 and we're putting together TTT #2 now for August 12th - 16th, 2013.

At the same time, we're working on collating georeferencing materials and links to materials here in the Wiki Pages for use by the entire community. We encourage you to share your georeferencing workflows and protocols and add your favorite links to our georeferencing wiki.
