More than 60 paleontologists representing 41 institutions assembled in New Haven, CT the week of September 23rd, 2013 to share ideas, protocols, preferences, and strategies. This was iDigBio’s most populous workshop to date, with an assortment of excellent presentations ranging from digitization workflows and imaging techniques to data model requirements, strategies for education and outreach, features of the two ADBC-funded paleo-related Thematic Collections Networks (TCN), issues in managing digitization personnel and resources, and an overview of 3D scanning technology, with ample opportunities reserved for helpful discussion.
