  3. Import all of SALVIAS data into VegBIEN

From Brad

  1. send revised VegBIEN schema to Aaron (Bob)
  2. Make changes to VegBIEN schema (Aaron)
  3. Mapping from VegBIEN to original VegBank (the latter to be used as web schema for BIEN web interface)
  4. Complete full dataset imports to VegBIEN via VegX of NYBG and SALVIAS (Aaron)
    • Identify and make changes to VegX needed to enable full-dataset imports
    • Or report changes needed to Nick, Miquel and Martin and have them make changes
    • Even if you make changes yourself, but sure to report to Nick et al. so these changes change be incorporated to the draft schema on TDWG
  5. Complete full-dataset validations for NYBG & SALVIAS (Aaron and Brad)
  6. Acquire additional plot data sets from providers willing to work with Aaron on mappings and validations (Bob: TurboVeg; Brad: RAINFOR, CTFS).
