1. EDIT was a European project aimed at reducing fragmentation of taxonomic data and integrating taxonomic institutions through coordination and shared activities and infrastructure.
2. One goal was applying taxonomy to conservation through initiatives like ATBI+M, which organized taxonomic experts to conduct biodiversity inventories and monitoring at pilot conservation sites.
3. Lessons from EDIT emphasized the need for continued development of standards, tools, and virtual infrastructure to facilitate data capture, improve quality, and increase integration to support ongoing biodiversity observation.
La strategia a lungo termine di AREA Science Park per l'internazionalizzazione del sistema scientifico regionale / AREA Science Park long-term strategy for the internationalisation of the regional scientific system - by Marta Formia
GBIF-Norway node story lightning talk at GB26 in Leiden, October 2019Dag Endresen
The Nodes training at the start of the Nodes meeting focussed on Nodes strategies, administration, and governance tools. Some of the nodes stories were presented at the Global Nodes Meeting. Norway has an operational GBIF Node providing nationally important data pathways that are very well integrated into national information systems. However, there is not yet any solution in place for funding after 2019. In less than 3 months the node might be left without any node budget. Unfortunately, this is a situation far too many of the GBIF Nodes recognize alarmingly well - if they even have any appropriate node budget at all.

EUBrazilOpenBio aims to ambitiously combine the Biodiversity Science and the Open Access Movement, promoting the concept of the openness for scientific research. The project will deploy an open-access platform from the federation and integration of existing European and Brazilian infrastructures and resources, making significant strides towards fully supporting the needs and requirements of the biodiversity scientific community.

Building new knowledge from distributed scientific corpus: HERBADROP & EUROPE...Nuno Freire
This paper presents approaches for building new
knowledge using emerging methods and big data technologies
together with archival practices.
Two cases studies have been considered. The first one called
HERBADROP is concerned with preservation and analysis of
herbarium images. The second one called EUROPEANA investigates
how to facilitate the re-use of cultural heritage language
resources for research purposes. The common point between
these two case studies is that they are both concerned with the
use of valuable heritage resources within the EUDAT (European
Data) infrastructure. HERBADROP leverages on the data services
provided by EUDAT for long-term preservation, while EUROPEANA
leverages on EUDAT to achieve citability and persistent
identification of cultural heritage datasets.
EUDAT1 is an initiative of some of the main European data
centers and together with community research infrastructure
organisations, to build a common eInfrastructure for general
research data management.
In this paper, we show how technologcal trends may offer some
new research potential in the domain of computational archival
science in particular appraising the challenges of producing
quality, meaning, knowledge and value from quantity, tracing
data and analytic provenance across complex big data platforms
and knowledge production ecosystems.
Big Data Europe at eHealth Week 2017: Linking Big Data in HealthBigData_Europe
Of the four V's of big data – Volume, Velocity, Variety and Veracity – the most challenging for the health sector is Variety. Health data comes from many sources, formats and standards – how can we bring these together to reap the benefits of big data technologies?
Big Data Europe is tackling this challenge head-on, building a big data infrastructure flexible enough to tackle all seven Societal Challenges identified by Horizon 2020. Here we demonstrate our pilot implementation of Open PHACTS, which integrates life science data for drug discovery.
