News: Data sharing report from Spanish GBIF Node

A short report on Spanish data provision to the GBIF Network is already available. Data sharing with countries of origin is also analysed in brief, with a distribution map of the Spanish data in the GBIF Network.
Released on: 14 June 2005
Contributor: Not applicable
Language: English
Spatial coverage: SPAIN
Keywords: data sharing, distribution map

This short report stresses the importance of two fundamental GBIF policies:

  • Data providers recognition
  • Data sharing with countries of origin.

An analysis made to the data currently shared from Spanish providers has showed that about 25% of the data is related to countries other than Spain. New efforts will be made in order to increase this figure.
