Oral presentations and posters should emphasize the use of digital data for biodiversity research, inclusive of the neontological and paleontological domains. | Oral presentations and posters should emphasize the use of digital data for biodiversity research, inclusive of the neontological and paleontological domains. | ||
Suggested Themes for Presentations and Posters might include: | |||
* published or publishable biodiversity research that depends on digital datasets, | |||
* systematics and the use of digital data, | |||
* ongoing research projects that derive from and use digital datasets, | |||
* gaps and deficiencies in currently available digital data that hinder effective use, | |||
* user critiques of digital data aggregators and providers, | |||
* integrated digitization/data use/research pipelines, | |||
* standards and practices for depositing and documenting open access digital datasets, | |||
* the role and relevance of “Big Data” in biodiversity research, | |||
* use of digitized biodiversity data within the ecological sciences, | |||
* the relative importance of digital data derived from specimens vs. observations, | |||
* managing digital biodiversity data in support of research pipelines, and | |||
* analyzing and visualizing biodiversity digital data. | |||
