Ebbe Nielsen Challenge
The enhancements made to the automated Frictionless Data packages for datasets was awarded 2nd place in the Global Biodiversity Information Facilitiy's 2023 Ebbe Nielsen Challenge. Thanks to the jury who recognized this work in support of round tripping activities and congratulations to all other winners. In celebration of this news, come join the workshop (announced below) and learn from experts who will discuss and demonstrate how they disambiguate people names in natural history collections and how they make use of these data packages.
Upcoming Online Workshop
Put the disambiguation of people's names into practice with a particular focus on natural history collections management systems. The purpose of this remote workshop is for you to learn how to do this in the software you use at your institution through incorporation of ideas, logic, scripts, and persistent and unique identifiers from wikidata and ORCID. In so doing, you can take advantage of the time and effort Bionomia scribes have put into disambiguating and linking collectors/determiners to the specimen records you shared with the Global Biodiversity Information Facility. Expert speakers and domain specialists will guide you through their workflow and will offer helpful tips and tricks.
