Data Policy Notes
LTERN encouraged the sharing of data and knowledge for the long-term benefit of the research community. Data sharing should only occur within a framework where data contributors receive appropriate recognition for their work, and where data users understand, in advance, the responsibilities placed upon them when they access and/or use another?s data.

To mitigate risks associated with threatened species, LTERN's Policy was to mediate access to spatial data.
