Confluence Retirement

In an effort to consolidate USGS hosted Wikis, myUSGS’ Confluence service is scheduled for retirement on January 27th, 2023. The official USGS Wiki and collaboration space is now SharePoint. Please migrate existing spaces and content to the SharePoint platform and remove it from Confluence at your earliest convenience. If you need any additional information or have any concerns about this change, please contact myusgs@usgs.gov. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Highlights

  1. The Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS) provides observations of marine species from many different sources. And you can easily query and visualize the data using a Jupyter notebook!
  2. iNaturalist citizen science observations are helping researchers understand biodiversity monitoring (after some automated data processing). iNaturalist got a thumbs up from a meeting participant as a neat mobile app to take on your hikes.
  3. Rescuing legacy data at the USGS remains a Herculean effort. The Legacy Data Inventory Reporting System (LDIRS) and its evaluation criteria can help the USGS address this need.
  4. Need guidance for proper documentation and publication of geolocated photo collections? See the CDI-funded project on a web mapping application for photo collections.
