Overview
Biodiversity inventory data with documented sampling effort, methods, and abundance and absence data have dominated ecology research for years. Unlike museum and DNA based research, inventory data are often managed locally and access restrictions are common. This has begun to change. The complex ecological questions we face today mean there is an ever increasing need for collaboration across sectors, disciplines, and organizations that requires enhanced access to and interoperability of ecological data at all spatio-temporal scales. As the ecological community evolves to become more data-intensive and data-centric while maintaining hypothesis-driven analytics, the necessity to understand data flows and integration is paramount. In addition to data discovery through metadata standardisation and data catalogues, ecologists now have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of deep-indexed data thanks to recent developments, notably Humboldt extension to the Darwin Core biodiversity data standard. This session will guide focused discussion on issues surrounding open and FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) data in the broader field of ecology with presentations on data transparency, data integration, data archival policies, and data citation culture and practices from key players in the open and FAIR biodiversity data realm.
