General Information

Remote Access

To the extent possible, the Summit sessions will be broadcast and recorded using Adobe Connect, and the meeting hosts will monitor the chat to address questions/concerns. To connect, go to https://idigbio.adobeconnect.com/summit5/ and choose Enter as Guest, type your first and last name, and then click Enter Room. Remote participants are encouraged to visit the iDigBio Web Conferencing Wiki prior to connecting.

Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority

The Washington Metro is the rapid transit system serving the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. We encourage all Summit participants to make use of the Metro when travelling in and around D.C. Some useful Metro links: Metrorail Pocket Guide, Metrorail Frequency, Trip Planner, and Metrorail Fares.
