Description

The 3-year project "BFL – Data flow DWB and FIN" is initiated in 2013. Its goal is to set up a sustainable technical and curatorial infrastructure for data mobilisation, management and archiving of floristic data of Bavaria. "BFL – Data flow DWB and FIN" make the occurrence and distribution data from the past and from now available for the future. For these purposes the project develops work flows from the creating of data by volunteer experts in the field up to the SNSB IT Center and the Botanische Staatssammlung München. Thus, professional scientific and technical curation is ensured. The Diversity Workbench is installed as virtual working environment and database management system to quality-control and process the BFL data on a long run. Curatorial assistance by volunteer experts is welcome and will be organised. The workflows include the providing of data to FIN Web. All work is done in strong cooperation between the project partners and stakeholders involved.
