About DWB BioCASe Data Publication pipeline and RDF service

The DWB BioCASe Data Publication pipeline and RDF service is part of the DWB data pipeline at the SNSB IT Center. It provides access to occurrence data, including collection and observation records, through searchable catalogs for each dataset and query tools.

The service connects Diversity Workbench services with an SNSB installation of the BioCASe provider software and an RDF service for machine readability. Its metadata follows Linked Open Data requirements with URIs as stable and unique identifiers; stable identifiers at unit level are published in the ABCD "Unit GUID" element. It is compliant with GBIF, GFBio and CETAF, and its id-service redirects to HTML or rdf+xml according to HTTP ACCEPT headers.
