GBIF: Effective use of GBIF-mediated data
Data Partnerships Officer, GBIF Secretariat, Copenhagen Denmark
GBIF - the Global Biodiversity Information Facility - provides free and open access to over 3 billion species occurrence records to anyone with an account with the organisation. The use of this valuable data source is increasing year on year, with over 12000 peer-reviewed publications using GBIF-mediated data. t is a key data source for monitoring the state of biodiversity.
In this session, we aim to showcase the principles of good use of GBIF-mediated data and will address:
· Data Sources and Standards - an introduction to GBIF data publication workflows and how the data is organised
· Data Quality - key data quality issues that users should be aware of, and how to deal with such issues in data use
· Data Access - the different mechanisms for accessing data including APIs, cloud computing and SQL downloads, and how to correctly cite data use
The session will be through a set of presentations, interspersed with guided navigation through GBIF resources on www.gbif.org, to support the effective use of GBIF-mediated data for all those who have used, or are planning to use, GBIF-mediated data.
