How to get started

Individual researchers, institutions or research centres willing to (a) share plankton-related data with us as external contributers or (b) set their own local PlanktonNet repository with biodivDP are encouraged to contact the project coordinator. For more details on biodivDP, visit our open acess pages.

Becoming an OAI-PMH data provider

Any OAI-PMH compliant data providers willing to accept the term listed under our data policies are welcome to become part of the pool of harvested repositories in the PlanktonNet network.  We encourage you to fill out the "Register URL" form available in our data portal so as to allow the harvesting process from our OAI service provider to take place daily.
