[Nhcoll-l] Wednesday 2/24 - Webinar on mobilizing arthropod data through the SCAN Portal

[Erica Krimmel]

iDigBio invites you to join Neil Cobb and the Terrestrial Parasite Tracker
TCN <http://parasitetracker.org/> for a webinar on mobilizing arthropod
data through the SCAN Portal <https://scan-bugs.org/portal/>.

The webinar will cover two areas: An overview of how SCAN works, followed
by a preview of an upcoming portal currently being set up for the
Terrestrial Parasite Tracker TCN (TPT). The overview will cover the basics
of how SCAN works as a primary aggregator and also some information for
those that want to use Symbiota as their primary content management system.
The TPT project portal will include arthropod parasite occurrence data and
images as well as vertebrate host occurrence data. This cross-phyla portal
will be the first Symbiota portal to use the new Symbiota2 content
management system. The last part of the webinar will include a question and
answer period for anyone who wants to know how to participate in SCAN now
and/or what to expect with the new Symbiota2 system. Cost to attend is free
and pre-registration is not required.
