Intro

A git lab notebook/wiki based on Gollum.

These notes document work done during July/August 2013 on the global biodiversity database. Johanna has initiated most of the work, Joona is acting as a summer substitute.

Structure of the repo

For individual items, this git notebook follows Jekyll naming conventions, e.g. individual notebook item has the following naming pattern:

YYYY-MM-DD_DATACATEGORY_TASK.md

Here, YYYY-MM-DD is the creation date in ISO 8601 format, DATACATEGORY is the general data category (e.g. ecoregions, GADM) and TASK is a particular task (e.g. scaling).

Currently, the wiki only support flat organization (i.e. no subfolders).

ToDo

1. Automated script to check the geospatial consistency of the files (using GDAL)
