GBIF’s Mandate ”To facilitate free and open access to biodiversity data worldwide, via the Internet, to underpin scientific research, conservation and sustainable development.”
GBIF is govt-initiated, and govt. funded, in response to government agency needs in biodiversity information access and management;
GBIF is in service to science, as a global ‘public good’
Data shared online via GBIF Data shared online via GBIF
(>200 m biodiversity records mapped to a 1 X 1 degree grid)

Primary biodiversity data and information effectively available
Data and information that have been produced but are not easy to find, access, and use (i.e not effectively available!) - a gigantic task of mobilising billions of data is still needed, as well as integrating new data.

GSAP-NHC RecommendationsGSAP-NHC Recommendations1. Discovery: facilitate access to information about
non-digital collections
2. Digitisation: increase the efficiency of data capture and to enhance data quality
3. Publication: improve & promote global infrastructure to mobilise digitised collections data
Towards Data Publishing Framework....Towards Data Publishing Framework....
• Data Publishing Framework Task Group
• Data Paper as mechanism for incentivising metadata efforts
• Data Citation mechanisms
