ABSTRACT. This webinar introduces the GBIF IPT, the most widely used 
tool to publish and share biodiversity data through the GBIF network. 
Demonstrating how to publish a species occurrence dataset, special 
emphasis will be given to how to properly map fields to /DwC terms/ 
while complying with vocabularies and making sure to satisfy GBIF’s 
required and recommended terms. It will end with a brief look at the 
tool’s roadmap, with some essential information all IPT administrators 
need to be made aware of.

Please bring or submit questions for open discussions in each webinar:
