I have been working with Søren to interlink our species lists, and many of the sources included on the EEA diagram are incorporated into my sparql endpoint.

There are additional linked data sets including uniprot and bio2rdf.

The endpoint is described here: http://www.taxonconcept.org/sparql-endpoint/

This means that people can at least begin to try some of this out now.

* I am in the process of updating my data set so the over the next few days there will be a time where the taxonconcept entities disappear, but they should be back within an hour.

Here is one species as seen from the TaxonConcept entity in the triplestore:

http://lsd.taxonconcept.org/describe/?url=http://lod.taxonconcept.org/ses/dwAmr%23Species

Here is the EUNIS representation for that same species.

http://lsd.taxonconcept.org/describe/?url=http://eunis.eea.europa.eu/species/90992

Note you can browse between these an other related entities.

Respectfully,

- Pete

I am quite sure they will start working on this quite soon.

Cheers,
