Hello Tim, The Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) uses EZIDs as our unique identifiers. What EZID capability are you removing from IPT?

We therefore propose to remove EZID capabilities from the IPT 2.4 release as we are not aware that it is in use by anyone. If you are using EZID with your IPT can you please let me know asap and elaborate on which identifier scheme you are using so we can reconsider? Many thanks, Tim

Thanks very much, this is helpful feedback. On a related note, Harvard-IQSS created a platform called Dataverse (https://dataverse.org/about) around 2007 and one interesting element is that they published a method for hashing datasets. This is done for the purpose of creating a citation element that can be used to verify that you have downloaded the same data. Passing along in case this is of interest to the group: http://best-practices.dataverse.org/data-citation/ Best regards, Jonathan A.

migrate dataset from one IPT to another
by Rui Figueira 26 Sep '18

26 Sep '18

Dear IPT list, We want to migrate several datasets from http://maerua.iict.pt/ipt to http://ipt.gbif.pt. The datasets are already registered with GBIF, and there will be no change of the publishing organisation. We are thinking in transferring the resources to the new host IPT by importing the DwC-A from the old IPT. The questions is how to publish the datasets in the new hosting IPT, without creating a duplication in the GBIF registration? I tried to find a solution for this in https://github.com/gbif/ipt/wiki/FAQ.wiki, but none of the answers seems to apply. Thanks, Rui -- Rui Figueira Coordenador do Nó Português do GBIF ruifigueira(a)isa.ulisboa.pt Instituto Superior de Agronomia Herbário Tapada da Ajuda, 1300-344 Lisboa, Portugal Tel. +351 213653165 | Fax. +351 213653195 http://www.gbif.pt http://www.isa.ulisboa.pt

update of Darwin Core Resource Relationship extension
by Rui Figueira 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Hi IPT list members, Could anyone help me to understand what are the implications of doing an update of the Darwin Core Resource Relationship extension, that our IPT installation is asking to update? I am particularly concerned with the dataset http://ipt.gbif.pt/ipt/resource?r=edp_tua_arthropoda_eia, that is using this extension. The table resourcerelationship.txt in the dataset uses the term scientificName to identify the name of the tree where larva of butterflies feed on. This is reflected in the occurrence data at gbif.org, for example, in this record: https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1585354292. I noticed that the update of the extension dropped the term scientificName. So, could anyone guide me on the changes that I need to do in the dataset, in order to be able to update the extension and have the same or equivalent information about the relationship in the record at https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/1585354292?
