Occurrence search (http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search):

New locality based filters:
- locality, province/state and water body
- These are not interpreted terms, but allow search based on what publishers state
- http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?STATE_PROVINCE=California
- http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?WATER_BODY=AMAZONAS+BASIN%2C+RIO+JURUA
A new organismID filter
- http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?ORGANISM_ID=100
Publishing protocol filter
- http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?PROTOCOL=TAPIR
License filter and facet:
- http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/search?license=CC_BY_4_0
The occurrence API supports all the filters mentioned above with the addition of also allowing search by publishing organisation

Occurrence downloads:

The rights.txt file: has been changed to list all the licenses of datasets included in that download.
DwC-A based downloads and the Datacite metada (DOIs) use the most restrictive license of the datasets included in the download defaulting to CC-BY.
The CSV downloads contain a new column ‘License’.

The Dataset search page now supports faceted navigation by license: http://www.gbif.org/dataset/search?license=CC_BY_4_0

In the release, we have temporarily broken the “repatriation” filter which is being re-enabled now, and will be online again tomorrow. Sorry about this partial outage of that search term.
