Products for Sustainable Development Goal 14 on Life in the Sea from MBON (Marine Biodiversity Observation Network)
This repository was setup to version and collaborate on code and small data files subsequent to the March 15-17, 2017 meeting in St Petersburg, FL.
We have three ways of sharing files:
-
Google Drive in bit.ly/sdg14mbon: simple, easy notes/presentations/spreadsheets, works well for most
-
Github marinebon/sdg14: versioned scripts, csv’s (small data), etc
-
Server
mbon.marine.usf.edu
: big data files
Subfolders are currently organized by teams:
- biodiversity
- infographics
- satellite
- technical
Github limits free, public repositories to 1 GB total with a per file limit of 100 MB (and warning > 50 MB). Any files larger than 50 MB, I strongly recommend storing on our server mbon.marine.usf.edu
in the /mbon/data_big
folder.

).
To get an account on the server, please fill out your info on this spreadsheet:
Github & mbon.marine.usf.edu accounts - Google Sheets
For easily transferring files between server and client via SFTP, I recommend CyberDuck for any platform (Windows / Mac / Linux).
For a quick primer on getting setup with Git, Github and RStudio, please see:
We will be expanding documentation here in the near future.
