Museum specimens of Diptera (flies) of the suborder Brachycera from the entomological museum collection in Oslo will be georeferenced and registered electronically into the museum database and published in GBIF. All specimens will get persistent identifiers based on UUIDs that will resolve from the resolver provided by GBIF-Norway. An estimated 6500 new specimens will be added and another estimated additional 9200 specimens will be georeferenced with co-funding of 150 000 NOK from GBIF-Norway. Project participants include Geir Søli, Dawn Williams, and Lars Ove Hansen.
The final project report will be published here when submitted.
