Machine Readable Nature Hybrid Helpdesk 2024

Dear UiO students and employees,

We are going to be holding an open drop-in hybrid data & programming helpdesk every two months during 2024.

We can help with:

• publishing your biodiversity-related data to GBIF, the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (https://gbif.org)
• biodiversity data analysis
• biodiversity data management
• creating a data paper for publication (a peer reviewed document describing a dataset, published in a journal - it takes effort to prepare, curate and describe data, and this deserves recognition)
• making your R, Python (or any other) code reproducible in accordance with Open Science
• code design best practice
• transparent workflows and working with GitHub
• making your data FAIR
• possibly with data storage solutions for your biodiversity data

Dates (drop-in online helpdesk):

• 14 February 2024 @ 14:00 - 15:00
• 17 April 2024 @ 14:00 - 15:00
• 12 June 2024 @ 14:00 - 15:00
• 14 August 2024 @ 14:00 - 15:00
• 16 October 2024 @ 14:00 - 15:00
• 11 December 2024 @ 14:00 - 15:00

Location:

• On-Site: Office K07, Lids Hus, Tøyen Campus
• Zoom link: https://uio.zoom.us/my/gbif.no.
