  1. CyberinfrastructureRoles and Goals Greg Riccardi griccardi@fsu.edu

  2. iDigBio People • Florida Museum of Natural History and University of Florida • Larry Page, Jose Fortes, Pamela Soltis, Bruce McFadden, Renato Figueiredo, Reed Beaman, Andrea Matsunaga, Alex Thompson, Matthew Collins, Jason Grabon, Shari Ellis, Kevin Love, Betty Dunkel, Kate Rachwal, Cathleen Bester • Florida State University • Greg Riccardi, Austin Mast, Marcia Mardis, Gil Nelson, Casey McLaughlin, Deb Paul, Guillaume Jimenez, Diane Leiva

  3. Mandate and Responsibility • Provide portal access to collection information • Make information available and discoverable • Metadata and images • Enable digitization and research • Facilitate digitization workflows • Oversee implementation of standards and best practices for digitization • Be a client of digitization projects • Actively seek partners and data sources • Respond to cyberinfrastructure needs • Engage communities • Collections • Research • Citizen science and education • Support ADBC goals • Access to information • Support for collections

  4. Some Vision Stuff • Collection Information is completely available! • Engage, enable, ensure! • iDigBio infrastructure works flawlessly • Digitization technology and workflows • Movement of information into collections cloud • Portal for discovery and sharing • TCNs are successful • Successful operation of each TCN • Effective sharing among TCNs • Collaborative communities • Evaluation of effectiveness of digitization activities • Broader community is engaged and served • From Judy Skog (NSF) • “Work beyond your comfort zone”

  6. Issues for Using ECN Information • Suppose that lots of collection information has been digitized and managed • Highly distributed information • Large variety of software systems • Uneven availability • Large variation in data models, especially in property vocabulary • How to use information within collection • How to use information across collections • How to collaborate with other researchers

  7. Why Not Use GBIF? • We will be extending the GBIF capabilities • Full record-level information discovery and delivery • Metadata harvesting protocols • GUID per record with persistence • Attribution metadata with all data records • Media information alaAudubon Core • Bi-directional portal • Feed back from data users to providers (e.g. data quality) • Usage analytics • Attribution to providers from analysis • Annotation management • Active repository technology • Cloud computing infrastructure • We will be a GBIF cyber infrastructure partner • E.g. IPT extension for Audubon Core • Darwin Core Archive delivery of query results

  8. Engaging Community • Solicit partners • Information providers • Tool providers • Current needs assessment from TCNs • Cyberinfrastructure toolbox • Determine tool needs from partners • Acquire tools from projects and • Create installable, interoperable appliances from tools • Sample tools • Specify as a consistent resource within communities • Morphbank image repository • Vertnet search engine • Atrium biodiversity information system • GBIF information provider toolkit (IPT) • Silver Biology tools for digitization and management

  9. Support for Digitization Projects • Advocate standard practices in digitization • Use metadata standards • Provide taxon name services • Participate in workflow development • Share digitization practices across domains • Hold workshops for education and sharing • Enable and encourage social networking and collaboration • Enhance and develop tools • Seek additional funding

  10. Summary • Engage community to determine needs and capabilities • Provide basic cyber infrastructure and information portal • Interact with TCNs and other digitization projects to promote • Data standards • Best practices for digitization • Enable research applications • Provideinformation access • Provide APIs for analysis tools • Feedback information to providers • Lead education and outreach efforts • Respond to community
