We are rapidly adding published datasets, developing new tools and adding functionality to better serve the research and management communities. Benefits include an off-site archiving service, multi-faceted visualization of your data and increased visibility of your research program while data providers retain ownership of their data. The event, useful for both data providers and users, will include sections focusing on visual survey data, as well as integrating photo-ID and acoustic data. You are invited to participate as potential data providers and/or users of OBIS-SEAMAP. Lucie Hazen Duke University [email protected]
