Greetings NHCOLL,<br>
<br>
Do you do a lot of georeferencing when digitizing your specimen
collections? Or, perhaps you are training others to do so? This
Darwin Core Hour may be of special interest and relevance to you and
assist you when writing your institution's georeferencing protocols.<br>
<br>
One week from today - find out precisely where you are - via Darwin
Core Hour #6: <br>
Where am I, exactly? Darwin Core Georeferencing Terms<br>
<br>
Abstract:<br>
In this chapter of the Darwin Core Hour series, we will look in
depth at two Darwin Core georeferencing terms that can be confusing
when sharing location data: coordinateUncertaintyInMeters and
coordinatePrecision. We will cover these specific Location terms,
along with related terms needed to understand their definitions,
importance, and uses. Finally, we will use these terms to
demonstrate the process by which community feedback leads to
improved Darwin Core documentation. Please bring your insights,
community experience, and questions surrounding locality data
issues.<br>
<br>
Presenters: David Bloom, John Wieczorek<br>
Date, Time: Tuesday, 11 July at 8am PDT, 11am EDT, 12pm GMT-3<br>
