Title

Advancing data standardisation: OBIS Australia’s contribution to Marine Biodiversity data publishing in Australia

Abstract

OBIS Australia (OBIS-AU), a regional node of the Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS), promotes the use of Darwin Core (DwC) (Wieczorek et al. 2012) as a standard for marine biodiversity data publishing across the Australian region. OBIS-AU is hosted by Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) National Collections and Marine Infrastructure (NCMI) and has published over 36 million DwC records from 480 marine biodiversity datasets, establishing itself as a key contributor to the OBIS network. The OBIS-AU publishing workflow leverages centralised data transformation processes to ensure high-quality, standardised data outputs.
