This grant aims to boost the national database of digital data documenting verified biological and paleontological collections, improving scientific knowledge through enhanced access to digitized information. Vital for biodiversity research, the data includes geographic and environmental habitat details, collector field notes, and molecular data. Organized at various levels, this initiative leverages existing investments in scientific collection curation to advance technology and research in the United States, addressing gaps in our understanding of earth’s biodiversity. It offers a valuable resource for tackling modern biological challenges.

| Description:: | This program seeks to enhance and expand the national resource of digital data documenting existing vouchered biological and paleontological collections and to advance scientific knowledge by improving access to digitized information (including images) residing in vouchered scientific collections across the United States. The information associated with various collections of organisms, such as geographic, paleogeographic and stratigraphic??distribution, environmental habitat data, phenology, information about associated organisms, collector field notes, and??tissues and molecular data extracted from the specimens, is a rich resource providing the baseline from which to further biodiversity research and provide critical information about existing gaps in our knowledge of life on earth. The national resource is structured at three levels: a central coordinating organization, a series of thematic networks based on an important research theme, and the physical collections. The national resource builds upon a sizable existing national investment in curation of the physical objects in scientific collections and contributes vitally to scientific research and technology interests in the United States. It will become an invaluable tool in understanding contemporary biological issues and challenges. |
