13. 13 Our workshop goals Enhance your skills / knowledge for getting a dataset into a standard format and improving and extending that data Show how to use the GBIF IPT software, as one way to share data – (but not the only way) Enhance your Darwin Core and Data Sharing Standards knowledge ambassadors for data standardsdata standards development – You become ambassadors for data standards and data standards development Clarify for you, just what is in a Darwin Core Archive file (DwC-A) – Including extensions, what are they, why have them? Teach you how to create or update Darwin Core Archive files using the IPT Enhance your knowledge about where data goes and how it gets there once it leaves your collection Show how a taxonomist with an occurrence dataset can publish a dataset as a DwC-A mobilize Help you mobilize your data
