Are you hardcore into #DarwinCore? 😎

The Darwin Core Maintenance Group are seeking public review for the accumulated set of proposed changes to Darwin Core. 👀

🐸 Interested in contributing? The review period will be open for at least 30 days. 🔗https://www.tdwg.org/news/2025/darwin-core-public-review-2025/

Terms: 🔗https://dwc.tdwg.org/terms/

How does the #DarwinCore standard tackle data fragmentation and foster knowledge sharing? Our 2024 workshop explored these challenges and showcased solutions like ontologies, open repositories, and much more!

Sign up for the Virtual #DataUse Workshop for #Asia to learn the basics of using GBIF-mediated data for research and policy!

Covering #DarwinCore, #DataQuality, the GBIF.org platform, GBIF APIs and wrangling GBIF data in R, this course is for researchers or technicians in #biodiversity #research or #policy institutions looking to improve their data use skills.

(Deadline for applying is 23 June 2024)

I’m on my way to #EntSoc23 & #ECN2023 on a bus going 70 mph, but my computer is sending an OCR generated text file from a scanned collecting event sheet and sending it to #chatgpt to parse into a #darwincore formatted spreadsheet. What a crazy weird world we live in.

For those of you doing #EcologicalMonitoring, note that a group at #TDWG, led by Yanina Sica, has been working on a set of global data standards for ecological monitoring, called the #HumboldtCore. This builds on the widely used #DarwinCore that is used for museum collections and casual observations (it's the biodiversity data sharing standard that makes #GBIF possible).

This month the final draft of Humboldt Core is open for public feedback at https://github.com/tdwg/hc/milestone/1

#tdwg s #standard development is driven by its #community: Please help our #DarwinCore Maintenance Group in further improving one of our most important standards by reviewing the proposed changes: https://www.tdwg.org/news/2023/darwin-core-public-review/ #standards #biodiversity

Wow. Deb Paul of #iDigBio uses #ChatGPT to parse fields from raw OCR into structured data (#DarwinCore):

https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/32#issuecomment-1344756915 (and following three comments)

OK #darwincore fans: It seems Darwin Core doesn't currently have a way to express "confidence" or "probability" in observations. (Whether human or machine.) Is there an ongoing discussion about how best to implement this? Where should I discuss it?
