fossilworks

Fossilworks is a web-based portal to the Paleobiology Database. Fossilworks is the original public interface to the PaleoDB and is housed at Macquarie. It is a non-governmental, non-profit public resource. Its purpose is to provide global, collection-based occurrence and taxonomic data for marine and terrestrial animals and plants of any geological age, as well as web-based software for statistical analysis of the data. The project's wider, long-term goal is to encourage collaborative efforts to answer large-scale paleobiological questions by developing a useful database infrastructure and bringing together large data sets.

Fossilworks 是一个基于网络的古生物学数据库门户。作为 PaleoDB 的原始公共接口，Fossilworks 落户于麦考瑞大学。它是一项非政府、非盈利的公共资源。其旨在为全球范围内的海洋和陆地动物及植物，无论地质年代如何，提供基于集合的全球分布和分类数据，并配备基于网络的统计分析软件。该项目更广泛、长期的目标是，通过构建一个实用的数据库基础设施，汇集大量数据集，以促进协作努力，解答大规模的古生物学问题。
