As a data provider, what do I need to do to prepare for the change?

In December 2012, all species datasets on the NBN Gateway were transferred automatically to the new system. Click here for information on how current access positions will be mapped to the new framework.

All dataset administrators were sent detailed guidance on how to use the existing administration controls on the Gateway to ensure a smooth transition to the new access system with no loss of access for approved users.

If you changed the level of public access to your dataset, please update the access constraints statement in the dataset’s metadata to take account of this.

 

Important! If you are an organisation administrator, please check that membership of your organisation is up-to-date by logging into the Gateway, clicking on my accountin the top right corner and selecting organisations-you managefrom the menu on the left. Click on current membersunder ‘manage membershipand if anyone has left your organisation, click ‘revoke accessto remove them.
