Audiogram data and relevant background information are currently only available embedded in the text of individual sci...

Database and web portal to present and evaluate audio-physiological data

This talk is about our experience with combining Docker and wikis at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. First I'll talk shortly about what we do at the Museum, and how we do it. The Museum is a very dynamic environment, and working here is probably very different from what most people imagine. Then I'll talk about running wikis with Docker. I'll go...

Technological developments open up new opportunities for collaboration between biodiversity researchers and the general public. Three exemplary case studies were reviewed from literature: digitizing museum specimens, text-mining archived expedition journals and handling environmental monitoring data. Data management principles were applied to refin...
