Many thanks, Shyama,
We confirm that species name, kingdom, family is a sufficient format.
I am not sure where the 20,000 species list coming from, such a number was discussed in Leipzig in IAS context [1]: "Obtain user statistics from GBIF for 20,000/5,000+ GRIIS species vs. all vs. freshwater (freshwaterbiodviersity.eu) regions? islands?"

Looking forward for the lists,
Best regards, Dmitry Schigel

Dear Dmitry,
Thanks for your message.
I suppose you mean 100, 5,000 and 20,000 unique species lists?? We can provide 100 and one of less than 5,000- not 20,000 Just to confirm- species name, kingdom family??

Hi Shyama, all,
Hope you have some time in between preps for the IUCN congress for this:
Tim Robertson would be ready provide custom data, and Quentin to analyze those for the task we discussed in Leipzig. I understood you have or can generate the lists of IAS? It would be fantastic to progress with this before our next Skype call.
TASK as I described it to Tim R:
IAS fitness for use group would like to know some data publishing and data access stats from GBIF.org, is it possible to have such things for given list of species vs. all vs. same number of randomly picked species? The lists of IAS are 100, 5,000 and 20,000 species strong. All the comparisons would be over time (since 2008) for target IAS / all / random species. IAS group is interested in things like:
o Rate of publishing
o Data access
* Lag btw collecting date and date when available at GBIF.org
EXPECTED OUTPUT Tim confirms that we can return a simple CSV of the records over time that match that, including the snapshot dates (the 28 views of GBIF over time). Field would be: id, kingdom, family, species, lat, lng, dataset, snapshotDates[] Snapshot dates would list the indexes (e.g. June 2010, December 2010) that it was seen in.
INPUT NEEDED Three different IAS lists of species. I think 100, 5,000 and 20,000 refer to 100 worst and two versions of the GRIIS lists.
If we are fast with this, you or Tim Hirsch (cc) would be able to present this at the IUCN congress at the IAS day.
I will be ready also to make the early survey signals slides for the same occasion. So far we have 37 responses out of 60+ invited power users. I wonder if the group could ask their expert contacts one last time before we open the survey for broader circulation?
Thanks, Dmitry
