Backbone will be rebuilt on a regular basis.taxonomic backbone revised Next steps Develop and share a plan with short, medium and long term activities to address recommendations of task groups Explore data use and publishing needs of molecular biodiversity research community data quality ENHANCING DATA FITNESS FOR USE 2016 objective: Enhance fitness of data accessed via GBIF.org for key research uses through engaging expert communities, and identify gaps

5 http://www.gbif.org/page/9773 Progress CC0, CC BY or CC BY-NC licences attributed to 98 % of datasets. Targeted communication with publishers to confirm licence assignations, run by GBIF country Nodes. Next steps Technical implementation of CC licences (Q3 2016) Implement search and download options to include filters for data with appropriate licensing conditions (Q3 2016) licensing MACHINE-READABLE DATASET LICENCES 2016 objective: ensure that all data accessed via GBIF.org are associated with a machine-readable, Creative Commons licence

6 Progress New version of GBIF.org under development including: integrated cross-site search streamlined navigation visualization of occurrence search results mobile/tablet compatibility Next steps Completely revised and updated site ready by Q4/16 informatics REENGINEER USER INTERFACE OF GBIF.ORG 2016 objective: Improve the functionality and usefulness of GBIF.org for key audiences

7 http://doi.org/10.15470/evi148 Progress GBIF.org now includes DOIs for all datasets and user downloads Recommended citation for downloads using DOIs Agreement with DataONE to enable implementation of a repository to upload cleaned datasets with GBIF- assigned DOIs Next steps Updated guidance on citations Mine publications to link cited use of data to source datasets Explore options for identifying high-value datasets in key areas Implement the repository backed by DataONE informatics IMPROVED CITATION & PERSISTENCE OF DATA 2016 objective: Offer data publishers improved ability to track use of mobilized data through linking citations using Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) to the source datasets to which they refer
