Digitisation / Cataloguing of non-textual objects: Access and format of existing digital object data, alignment of established database systems and development of a joint data portal - Biodiversity Network of the Humboldt-Ring (BiNHum)

BiNHum is a joint project of five natural history museums and research collections representing the Humboldt-Ring. These are the State Museums of Natural History Karlsruhe and Stuttgart, the Zoological Research Museum Alexander Koenig in Bonn, the Bavarian Natural History Collections in Munich, and the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem. The three-year project (2012-2015) will enforce collaboration and consolidate collection data of the Humboldt-Ring institutes and their associates by development of a joint data portal and efforts in data mining, standardisation, new data types as 3D images, and data porting to current IT standards.Additionally, the portal will provide all accessible data to international projects like GBIF. The implementation of these tasks needs task sharing, so BiNHum is partitioned into four work packages: WP 1: Coordination, data mining and porting (SMNS, SMNK, University of Ulm),WP 2: Development of a data portal (ZFMK),WP 3: Networking and data quality (BGBM),WP 4: Diversity workbench as virtual environment for BiNHum (SNSB)
