Data flow from Scratchpad to Darwin Core Archive. The dwca_export module (orange) defines a number of custom Drupal Views (queries) that collect the data required for archive generation from the Scratchpad (blue) and combines them with the meta.xml which describes the information in the archive. For eMonocot Scratchpads the emonocot_dwca module (green) provides an intermediary function replacing the Scratchpads internal unique identifiers with those used throughout the eMonocot project (see eMonocot modifications section).
