Description
Two 3 hour virtual workshops were held on the 2nd and 9th of November 2020 which analysed the current state of standards and best practice for managing data migration between crowdsourcing platforms and collection management systems. The workshops brought together developers of many of the principal crowdsourcing platforms, collection management systems along with an opportunity for collection managers, curators and data managers to participate in two sessions which included short presentations and a panel discussion to have wider discussion through a Q&A forum.
The workshop was organised in 2 sessions one week apart. The timetable of the two sessions was programmed to allow live participation from different time zones:
Session 1 - 2nd November 2020 08:00 - 11:00 UTC
Session 2 - 9th November 2020 14:00 - 17:00 UTC
The recordings of the sessions were made available the day following the session over Zoom platform, and also shared on youtube MOBISLISE channel for posterity: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFTWtmwUi34J_Wk3XK99I5w
Shared documents were created for interaction with the audience, where participants could post questions and get in contact with each other.
