Barriers to Synthesis
• Data not preserved – Tiny propor,on of ecological and evolu,onary data are readily
available
• Dispersed, isolated repositories – Each community has its own; disconnected; underu,lized
• Lack of so\ware interoperability
• Heterogeneous data – Many data formats, metadata formats, and varying seman,cs
