Adding to Symbiota's geographic backbone
Mary Barkworth
Dean Phillips has asked how to add to or create the geographic backbone for a Symbiota installation. He is at BOLUS (the herbarium of the University of Cape Town). They will be using their own server and making use of direct data entry. I have always asked others for help, not knowing how to work with the back end. In the past, I have provided a spreadsheet with the entries for “country”, “stateprovince”, “county”, and “municipality” to Ed or Curtis, but I am wondering if there are some instructions out there somewhere, preferably for enabling batch-upload in the sanem manner as names can be added to the nomenclatural backbone. Yes, Dean does have backend access.

THANK YOU! It sounds like, if one has access, it should be fairly straightforward.
Dean, you might wish to sign up for the Symbiota ListServ. I should have thought to send you there when you first asked. My mistake.
