The BGBM provides a standardized MS Excel form for rapid data entry in situations where direct access to the central collection databases is not available. The form is typically used for data capture during field trips or in collections without network connections. The form fields are derived from the ABCD standard for international collection data exchange as well as its GGBN extension for DNA/tissue data. Please adhere strictly to the specifications given in the documentation file. |
Using the CDF is mandatory for all people working at BGBM. Entering data from a herbarium label or our living collection can be difficult. This documentation shall guide you through the process. If you have questions regarding the CDF, please contact Gabi Droege (g.droege@bgbm.org) or Dominik Röpert (d.roepert@bgbm.org).
