[0] VertNet: A New Model for Biodiversity Data Sharing, by Heather Constable, Robert Guralnick, John Wieczorek, Carol Spencer, A. Townsend Peterson, The VertNet Steering Committee, PLoS Biology, Volume 8, Issue 2, e1000309. [1] February 2010 [3] A paper on the vertebrate biodiversity networks. The fundamental concept underlying the vertebrate biodiversity networks is that data contributors are the primary and authoritative source for information about the occurrence data over which they have custody. The networks merely facilitate access and sharing of these distributed primary resources. A fully decentralized architecture, with all requests distributed directly to the primary sources, highlighted the primacy of the contributing institutions and was an essential phase in promoting participation, instilling confidence and a sense of control within the community.
