    If you ever visit New Zealand you can use this map to find all sort of geo weirdness and tons of fossils - https://www.geotrips.org.nz/map.html

      This is fantastic! I'm doing a little road trip soon and will surely try to catch some of those landmarks, especially the ones around Kaikoura.

      Website reminds me of https://waterfalls.co.nz too.

      All the interesting bones are hidden in the Smithsonian.

        This definitely has vibes of old-school table-based layout. Was not disappointed. :-)

          It's a fossil of its own. On the sign-in page:

          > " This facility is currently under development (November 2005)."

            I made me check the source code. It's actually built with table layout, not just mimicking the vibe.

                Yup the cuts across the public sector are far-reaching. I work in research and we're finding it a lot harder to get govt grants (from GNS specifically, but I hear it's the same in other fields of research)

                  How is it open access? I can see nothing about libre or open licensing. Would very much assume that the database if fully covered by copyright.
