Share Data

Today's rapid rate of scientific and technological advancements has been made possible by developments in the informatics, the area of computer science devoted to data sharing and analysis. For biodiversity studies, a key step has been development of standards and protocols for sharing data about occurrences - records of what was seen where when and by whom. Learning how to record data in ways that enable data sharing is an important skill.  Learning to record data in ways that promote data sharing is an important skill. The Foundation promotes sharing of biodiversity data via  OpenHerbarium (for plants, fungi, and algae) and OpenZooMuseum (for animals), both of which can make it available to GBIF, the global aggregator of biodiversity data.
