Goal Standardize data for optimal retrieval• Geography (continent, country, coordinates …)• Dates (different formats, partial dates)• Numerics (allow interval search)• Scientific names (atomize, aggregate)

Integrate Publishing Toolkit 2.0.4
• http://code.google.com/p/gbif-providertoolkit/• Permits management, administration, publishing of
occurrence, checklist, metadata resources– Create metadata (Ecological Metadata Language, eml.xml)– Map resource to DarwinCore and optional extensions
• Register resources with GBIF• RSS feed for changes (eg updates) in resources

The problem with scientific names
• No comprehensive catalog of species• Names ≠ species• The species problem – species concepts• Competing classifications / phylogenies• Many names for one taxon• One name for many taxa• ‘Names’ are more than code-compliant scientific names
![Page 21: Canadensys - Federal Geospatial Platform](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052321/5559fdb9d8b42aa8098b4c55/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
A working solution
• Inclusive– Accommodate alternate perspectives
• Reconciliation– Map names among and between each other
• Disambiguation– Context to assign homonymic names to rightful place
