<div>Hi Alex,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We can add the protocol in the next iteration. Any other fields you have particular interest in?</div>
<div><br>
</div>

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">Awesome work guys, this make a number of data mining queries I used to have to run much easier and accessible right from the API/Download system.<br>
<br>
Any chance that the protocol field could be made searchable? Its always frustrating when I can see fields in the API, but have no ability to inspect their contents other that iteration. It's like the data is locked away just out of reach.<br>

<li>Full text search is now supported. Some examples of this new function are:
<ul>
<li>Search by collector (recorded by):
<ul>
<li><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?q=hobern">http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=hobern</a>
</li><li><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=desmet">http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=desmet</a>
</li></ul>
</li><li>Search by locality shows accurate results for most of the cases: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=santa%20ana">
http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=santa%20ana</a> </li><li>This service provides suggestions when a ‘similar/corrected’ version of the query could show more accurate results: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=kajsdkla&spellCheck=true">http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=kajsdkla&spellCheck=true</a> .
</li><li>This functionality is also supported by the GBIF portal: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search">http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?q=cobra</a></li></ul>
</li><li>Faceted search
<ol style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<li>The GBIF portal now supports faceted navigation by: <i>basis of record, type status, data set, country, year </i>and<i> month</i>. Please, see this example: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?basis_of_record=FOSSIL_SPECIMEN">http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?basis_of_record=FOSSIL_SPECIMEN</a> .
</li><li>The GBIF API supports faceted results by: <i>basisOfRecord, catalogNumber, classKey, collectionCode, country, datasetKey, decimalLatitude, decimalLongitude, depth, elevation, establishmentMeans, familyKey, genusKey, hasCoordinate, hasGeospatialIssue, institutionCode,
issue, kingdomKey, mediaType, month, occurrenceID, orderKey, phylumKey, publishingCountry, recordedBy, recordNumber, repatriated, scientificName, speciesKey, subgenusKey, taxonKey, typeStatus </i>and<i> year. </i></li><li>The occurrence API supports pagination request in facets using the parameters
<i>facetLimit</i> and <i>facetOffset</i>, see this example:
<ol style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<li>First three country counts/facets: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?facet=COUNTRY&COUNTRY.facetLimit=3&COUNTRY.facetOffset=0&limit=0"></a><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?facet=COUNTRY&COUNTRY.facetLimit=3&COUNTRY.facetOffset=0&limit=0">http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?facet=COUNTRY&COUNTRY.facetLimit=3&COUNTRY.facetOffset=0&limit=0</a></li><li>Next three country counts/facets: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?facet=COUNTRY&COUNTRY.facetLimit=3&COUNTRY.facetOffset=3&limit=0"></a><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?facet=COUNTRY&COUNTRY.facetLimit=3&COUNTRY.facetOffset=3&limit=0">http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?facet=COUNTRY&COUNTRY.facetLimit=3&COUNTRY.facetOffset=3&limit=0</a>
</li></ol>
</li></ol>
</li><li>A new repatriation filter allows to search for records whose publishing country is different to the country where the record was recorded in. For example, the following link shows the repatriated data of Costa Rica:<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?COUNTRY=CR&REPATRIATED=true">http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?COUNTRY=CR&REPATRIATED=true</a>
. </li></ol>
