#darwincore — Public Fediverse posts

📢 Great news from the TDWG community!
The Darwin Core Conceptual Model and Data Package Guide (DwC-DP) have been officially ratified ✅

These additions help define how biodiversity data elements relate to each other and make it easier to publish richer, more complex datasets 🌍📊

A big collaborative effort over several years — thanks to everyone involved! 🙌

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
