Hi, Thanks for your reply. I ooked at the link you mentioned.
If I understand correctly, the protocol that can be used to retrieve data from all providers registered on gbif is the REST interface ( http://data.gbif.org/ws/rest/occurrence) ?
But the data accessible with REST, is only a subset of the data made available by the provider (I mean the search terms do not include all Darwin Core elements)? To access the complete data, you would have to use Tapir or whatever protocol the provider implements?
Thanks very much.

Thomas, GBIF indexes all kinds of providers, DiGIR, BioCASE and TAPIR with different schemas even. We have a UDDI registry of services you can search for TAPIT providers:
go to find binding and search for tModels called "TAPIR"

Hi, Is there any list or data portal of Tapir providers? I mean, for instance the gbif data portal (www.*gbif*.orghttp://www.gbif.org/) uses a different protocol; the providers on the gbif portal wouldn't know how to deal with a Tapir request, or am I wrong? Same applies to the OBIS network (www.i*obis*.org http://www.iobis.org/) .
Thanks.
