Sumario: | Over the last two decades there has been an increased interest in promoting the open access to scientific databases, predominantly those obtained in the context of the publicly funded science system. The main objective of this contribution is to review the advantages of this policy for the scientists as well as the general public. We point out some issues regarding to data collection, storage and publication, which still remain to be solved in order to implement the policy of data sharing within biological anthropology. Particularly, we focus on traditional and geometric morphometric data, and the new technologies for gathering digital images in 2D and 3D. We finally outline a set of points that need to be addressed in order to promote the discussion about data sharing in Argentina. |
