Darwin Core (2009)

The Darwin Core should be viewed as an
extension of the Dublin Core for biodiversity
information.

The purpose of these terms is to facilitate
data sharing


a well-defined standard core vocabulary

a flexible framework

to maximize re-usability
The Darwin Core can be extended by
adding new terms to share additional
information.

DwC Germplasm Extension

DwC Germplasm Extension (DRAFT 0.1)

Modelled starting from the Multi-Crop
Passport standard (MCPD, 2001)

Includes the new terms for crop trait
experiments developed as part of the
European EPGRIS3 project.

Includes a few additional terms for new
international crop treaty regulations.

DwC Germplasm (2)
DwC Germplasm (3)
DwC Germplasm (4)
DwC Germplasm (5)
DwC Germplasm (6)
GermplasmDistribution
Perhaps add new terms to facilitate the reporting of germplasm
distribution for the ITPGRFA (International Treaty for Genetic
Resources for Food and Agriculture)
GermplasmManagement
The Millennium Seed Bank (Kew) has contributed feedback to the
DwC-G modeling and proposed to include a number of seed
management descriptors.
• Seed processing terms
• Seed cleaning
• Seed germination testing

• The GBIF IPT is an open source, Java (TM) based web
application that connects and serves primary biodiversity
data.
• The data registered in the IPT is connected to the GBIF
distributed network and made available for public
access.
• Designed to decentralize and speed up the process of
indexing (large) biodiversity occurrence datasets.
• IPT also provides a local tool for data quality
assessment to data publishers.
GBIF Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT)
-
-
Java 1.5 or higher is required
Apache Tomcat is recommended (1 GB RAM+)
GBIF IPT is provided as a WAR archive (for easy
deployment)
GeoServer is included for web mapping (OGC
Compliant, WFS, WMS, etc)
H2 Embedded Java Database (with JDBC
interface and web console)
Hibernate (object relational mapping)

The GBIF IPT
service has a
graphical interface
to the datasets.
Including a map, pie
charts, or the right
side context menu
(taxonomy and
geography).

XML interface

GBIF IPT implements the
Darwin Core Standard; and
provides an interface to
easily build extensions to
the core Darwin Core terms.
The draft germplasm
extension is one example of
how-to extend the Darwin
Core terms for the GBIF IPT.
Using GBIF technology (and
contributing to its
development), the PGR
community can easily
establish specific PGR
networks without
duplicating GBIF's work.
The compatibility of data
standards between PGR
and biodiversity collections
made it possible to integrate
the worldwide germplasm
collections into the
biodiversity community
(GBIF, TDWG).
