Biotic Associations: Informal Open Session I
Session Notes
The primary purpose of the meeting is to discuss how existing species interaction datasets are structured and how to increase our ability to generate aggregate datasets and examine networks of interactions. The ADBC program has promoted the mobilization of tens of millions of specimen-level data in natural history collections in the United States and many of these datasets contain rich species interaction data. During the first meeting Jorrit Poelen (Global Biotic Interactions, GloBI) and Katja Seltmann (UC Santa Barbara, Parasite Tracker) will present a recent Vampire Moth (Calyptra) interaction data use case, setting the stage for open discussion that will likely carry through the second meeting. We encourage participants to submit interaction datasets before the meeting so that they can be discussed as use cases. You can describe, point to, or share, your datasets by opening a new issue via https://tinyurl.com/shareInteractionData . You can also see how GitHub issues are used to openly discuss how to share specific existing biotic association datasets.

Data mobilization doesn’t (have to) stop when digitization is complete or grant funds have been exhausted. In this discussion group, we will explore how efforts, like a local digitization committee or leveraging institutional resources and policy, can inspire data mobilization across your collaborators' institutions.

Communicating with Administrators Gil Nelson & David Jennings
Session Notes
Keeping administrators abreast of your collection’s activities and its importance to your institution’s mission is critical to ensuring long-term support and positive internal relations. Knowing which metrics count and how best to express them as well as how to open and maintain avenues for positive communications with the administrative team is essential. This session will begin with brief opening remarks before transitioning into open discussion and sharing of successful techniques and strategies. We are pleased that Barbara Thiers and Bruce MacFadden, both with deep experience working with administrators at several levels, have agreed to join us as co-moderators.

Data Quality Feedback Richard Garand & Deborah Paul
Session Notes
Quality data is essential as a foundation for analytical, synthetic, and AI research. Anyone providing data to an aggregator or downloading data from an aggregator can make use of the data quality feedback offered. If you use this information, we would like to hear about how you use it (or not) and ways in which all of us can work on improving data quality (dq). From researcher, policy maker, graduate student, collection manager, curator, educator, and museum director, we all have a role to play. We also plan to share some of what we learned from a recent survey and symposium at SPNHC-TDWGNZ -- on this topic. And, we'll share some ideas for possible future changes to dq feedback from iDigBio as well as recent progress from the TDWG Data Quality Interest Group and iDigBio implementation plans.

Challenges in Research Use of Data Pam Soltis
Session Notes
We now have millions of digitized specimen records available for use in research, education, and other applications. Yet researchers face many challenges as they attempt to use these data. In this session, we will discuss ongoing challenges of data completeness, data quality, and fitness for use and possible solutions. We will also explore novel data types extracted from digitized specimen records – whether text or images – and consider community needs for effective use of these data in research.
