Guidelines for Acceptable Use of Data
Recommended Citation Formats
Use one of the following formats to cite data retrieved from the SCAN network:
General Citation:
SCAN. 2019. http//:scan-bugs.org/portal/index.php. Accessed on XXXX.
Usage of occurrence data from specific institutions:
Biodiversity occurrence data published by: <List of Collections> (Accessed through SCAN Data Portal, http//:scan-bugs.org/portal/index.php, YYYY-MM-DD)
For example:
Biodiversity occurrence data published by: Field Museum of Natural History, Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, and New York Botanical Garden (Accessed through SCAN Data Portal, http//:scan-bugs.org/portal/index.php, 2018-11-09)
There are scores of data providers that also post data on GBIF and and GBIF automatically provides a DOI for reference that you can use in a publication. We are working to have all collections in SCAN serve data on GBIF.
Occurrence Record Use Policy
- While SCAN will make every effort possible to control and document the quality of the data it publishes, the data are made available “as is”. Any report of errors in the data should be directed to the appropriate curators and/or collections managers.
- SCAN cannot assume responsibility for damages resulting from mis-use or mis-interpretation of datasets or from errors or omissions that may exist in the data.
- It is considered a matter of professional ethics to acknowledge the work of other scientists that has resulted in data used in subsequent research.
- SCAN expects that any use of data from this server will be accompanied with the appropriate citations and acknowledgments.
- SCAN encourages users to contact the original investigator responsible for the data that they are accessing. Where appropriate, researchers whose projects are integrally dependent on particular group of specimen data are encouraged to consider collaboration and/or co-authorship with original investigators.
- SCAN asks that users not redistribute data obtained from this site. However, links or references to this site may be freely posted.
