Extending Darwin Core to Represent Sociobiodiversity and Traditional Knowledge
Representing traditional knowledge in biodiversity standards needs new terms, knowledge-centred (not species-centred) models, and careful governance of who holds and publishes the data.

A new standard for restricted access (sensitive) species data
A proposed Darwin Core extension would record why data were restricted and what treatment was applied, in a one-to-many way similar to MeasurementOrFact.

Extending Specify 7 for geological collections (GeoSpecify)
GeoSpecify brings geology into the same Specify data model as biological collections, with purpose-built age, stratigraphy and composite-object features.
Theresa Miller ↗
Meeting Biodiversity Standards with Specify 7
Specify's new built-in Darwin Core mapping tool aims to make publishing from highly customised databases straightforward without giving up local flexibility.

Sharing Extended Specimen Data from Symbiota Portals using Registered Extensions
Existing registered Darwin Core extensions met each of Symbiota's extended-specimen needs, so look for existing standards before inventing new ones.
