A place-based data policy provides researchers with guidance on what is expected and acceptable behavior both through a code of conduct and sharing research products back to the field station. A generic template is available here.

Field stations can be a resource to liaise between local or Indigenous communities.

Local Context has two account types that are generally appropriate for field stations.

• An institution account is for cultural and research institutions and data repositories. This includes archives, libraries, museums, historical societies, galleries, data repositories, universities, and other organizations. Institution accounts generate Notices.
• A researcher account is for an individual who carries out academic or scientific research independently or in an institution. Researcher accounts generate Notices.
