=The DNA Module=
−
The DNA Module is an open source software for DNA data input and management. It was developed within the framework of the DNA Bank Network.
+
* Manage your DNA collection and customer requests with an open source software
−
<div id="wikinote">The main idea of the DNA Module is to connect DNA data to a specimen database via wrappers following the idea and data architecture of [http://www.gbif.org GBIF]. Thereby specimen data will always be up-to-date because you get the data from the original database.</div>
+
* Set references to voucher specimens by using GBIF infrastructure
−
To guarantee both the safeguarding and long-term availability of referenced DNA samples these should be deposited in research collections. Corresponding data including voucher/specimen information should to be stored in suitable collections databases.
+
* 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 you DNA data with others
 +
* Find out more about the [[DNA Module]]

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. [© GBIF]

* Administer your data locally
−
In September 2011 more than 302.000.000 specimen and observation data are available via the GBIF portal.
+
* Share your data with the world
 +
* Join the DNA Bank Network with your DNA Bank

==What technical requirements are required?==
 
−
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>
 
−
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.

These wiki sites leads you trough installing and use of the open source software "DNA Module" and will guide you 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 you DNA data with others
  • Find out more about the DNA Module
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 data
  • More than 30 Mio. records are provided to GBIF with BioCASE
  • Find out more about the pros of ABCDDNA and BioCASE
