Becoming a GBIF Data Provider

This training event is aimed at GBIF Nodes in Latin America. It will be given in the Spanish language. The status of the workshop is CONFIRMED.

Also trainees from other than GBIF participant countries and organisations are welcome to attend and register here. GBIF may be able to cover the costs. Inquire with helpdesk@gbif.org.

GBIF's DiGIR training workshop will take place on November 19. On November 17-18, there will be a biodiversity informatics course organised by INBio.

Implementation of the GBIF network requires knowing how to use the various software tools. The most basic requirement is to set up a node and operate a data provider application on a server computer. GBIF's standard for data provision is the DiGIR protocol. This course covers installation of the DiGIR provider on both Windows and Linux platforms.
