The Global Biodiversity Information Facility enables free and open access to biodiversity data online. It is an international government-initiated and funded initiative focused on making biodiversity data available to all and anyone, for scientific research, conservation and sustainable development. GBIF provides an information infrastructure – an Internet-based index of a globally distributed network of interoperable databases that contain primary biodiversity data – information on museum specimens, field observations of plants and animals in nature, and results from experiments – so that data holders across the world can access and share them.

=Why should I use the DNA Module?=
 
The Module is suitable for institutions that have or are planning to have a DNA bank.
 
 
 
==Features==
 
The Module offers several tools for data administration.
 
* Input DNA data
 
* Search/Edit DNA data
 
* Links to GenBank and BOLD entries
 
* Administrate Customer Requests
 
* Add (Molecular) Publications to DNA data
 
* Specimen Tool
 
* Configuration
 
* Data Cleaning
 
 
 
Please find out more about features [[Features|here]].
 
 
 
==What are the legal aspects?==
 
The software ist free and open source. By installing and using it you don't enter into a commitment.
 
<div id="wikinote">Please note that it is possible but no obligation to share your DNA data with the DNA Bank Network's web portal.</div>
 
 
 
==What technical requirements are necessary?==
 
The Module is optimised for PHP5 and MySQL5 (both free software). The database and the scripts has to be installed on a webserver so that more than one people can work with the Module. If only one person will be authorised to work with the Module a local installation is also possible.<br>
 
Any GBIF compliant specimen database worldwide can be accessed by the DNA Module.<br>
 
<div id="wikinote">Please note that it is obligate to install the Module on a webserver if you want to share your DNA data with the DNA Bank Network's web portal.</div>
 
Please contact your local administrator to check these requirements.
 
 
 
==How can I get it?==
 
The sourcecode of DNA Module 1.0 is available at [http://ww2.biocase.org/svn/dnabank/DNA_Module/Version1.0/
 
]. A second version will be available soon.

Welcome to the DNA Bank Network Wiki!

These wiki sites lead you through installing and using the open source software "DNA Module". Furthermore you will find information about the project and how to join the DNA Bank Network.

The DNA Module

  • Manage your DNA collection and customer requests with an open source software
  • Set references to voucher specimens by using GBIF infrastructure
  • Get original specimen data from GBIF providers instead of copies
  • Set links to NCBI, EMBL, DDBJ, or BOLD
  • Set references to publications
  • Use the Specimen Tool for specimen data that are not available via GBIF
  • Share your DNA data with others
  • Find out more about the DNA Module and the Specimen Tool
The DNA Module can interact with every GBIF compliant database

The Network

  • Administer your data locally
  • Share your data with the world
  • Join the DNA Bank Network with your DNA Bank
  • Join GBIF with your specimen and observation records
  • Let other scientists find and order your DNA samples via a central platform
  • Help us to bridge the gap between natural history collections and sequence portals
  • Find out more about how to Join the Network
The data architecture of the DNA Bank Network holds the potential to become an international platform of biological DNA banks to bridge the gap between natural history collections and molecular sequence databases.

ABCDDNA and BioCASE

  • Use this powerful team for exchange and transfer of DNA and sequence data
  • Use the main schema ABCD for providing specimen and observations records to GBIF
  • Use BioCASE for your own network purposes
  • More than 30 Mio. records are presently provided to GBIF with BioCASE and ABCD
  • Find out more about the pros of ABCDDNA and BioCASE
