Fig. 3From: Building a multi-scaled geospatial temporal ecology database from disparate data sources: fostering open science and data reuseContributions and collaborations of disciplines for developing an integrated geospatial-temporal database for macrosystems ecology (MSE). Ecoinformatics includes database systems, metadata, and other informatics tools needed for documenting and integrating datasets. Although statistics and machine learning are not used to create the integrated database, the constraints and requirements for future statistical and machine learning modeling should be incorporated into the process from the beginningBack to article page
