The connections between the core platforms of open disambiguation for natural history collections (light green) and their connections with other important biodiversity informatics platforms (blue). The diagram shows how data flow from collection management systems, through GBIF and is connected in Bionomia to people through Wikidata and ORCID. These new links can then be returned to the system. This data enrichment cycle is referred to as data roundtripping. Other biodiversity informatics platforms facilitate this process by providing biographical data and other information that support disambiguation.
