Infrastructure • GBIF France portal development – (see Pere ROCA’s presentation) • IPT2.0 and BioCase provider - DwC • Technical support for data publisher (IPT) and data hosting for: - few French institutions • - Benin, Cameroon, Guinea and Togo • Metadata catalogue on line in EML format (on French institutions which have collection specimens, observational metadata are collected by the ministry of Environment) • Development of tools: • - “simple-harvest” tool for indexation (available in GBIFLab) • - “SAGG” for Statistics and Analyses of Gaps on GBIF.
