DATA LICENCES End 2015 goals: All endorsed datasets with Creative Commons licence Updated data publisher and data user agreements Approach: Use publisher-specified licence where possible Datasets without special terms defined  CC-BY Datasets with special terms  propose best match from CC0, CC-BY, CC-BY-NC Where none fit and publisher does not respond, default to takedown Timeline: During August - Node Managers notified of proposed licence per dataset By end October – Identify Nodes which wish to communicate with own publishers Secretariat will confirm list and supply suggested wording Secretariat will communicate with others From 1 November – Nodes and Secretariat communicate with publishers Two months to respond Accept proposed licence / select other licence / take data down End December All datasets in GBIF network associated with CC licence

User searches for data through GBIF.org DataCite Denmark GBIF.org GBIF assigns DOIs to data downloads Cleaned data Data Data attribution Dataset DOI Researcher Paper Paper DOI User deposits cleaned dataset in a repository and gets DOI for dataset Published paper can give resolvable links to GBIF download and/or to cleaned dataset User cleans data User publishes paper GBIF download Data Data attribution Download DOI Download history Download 1... GBIF.org creates a download data set DIGITAL OBJECT IDENTIFIERS AND CITATION

Progress: All datasets now associated with a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) All data downloads now associated with a DOI with onward references to dataset DOIs Around 1 billion records downloaded each day First detected use of a download DOI in a published paper in Zootaxa Zootaxa Next steps: Revise GBIF Data User agreement (by end 2015) With DataCite and publishers, start mining use of GBIF DOIs Develop service to report use to data publishers Better reporting of usage to highlight value of data publishing

SAMPLE-BASED DATA Progress: Darwin Core Event now supports sample-based data (ratified in TDWG) Darwin Core Event Latest Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT 2.3) supports sample-based data as core data type EU BON IPT repository for sample-based dataIPT repository Next steps: Monitor and report use of extension in network Develop visualisations to show temporal and geographic distribution of sample-based data Work with existing data publishers to expose extra elements from relevant datasets Develop filters to access data for sampling events Feasibility studies for further visualisations
