Hi Everyone,
I have mentioned this before in another context but now I am coming to the same place from a different direction.
I am building scenarios and use cases for the standards architecture and it would be good to see how current standards are used.
Does anyone have any logs of the kinds of queries and responses that are actually being asked of BioCase and DiGIR providers? Or can anyone suggest who I could approach to get examples of logs?
Many thanks,
Roger
Roger,
If it helps, these are just about the only requests I issue to index and subsequently re-access data from DiGIR-DwC providers:
Get metadata; Scan values (and counts) for ScientificName values; Scan values (and counts) for CatalogNumber values (rarely); Scan values (and counts) for Country values (very rarely); Search for records (full DwC) where ScientificName>=n1 and ScientificName<=n2; Search for records (full DwC) where ScientificName=n1; Search for records (full DwC) where CatalogNumber>=n1 and CatalogNumber<=n2; Search for records (full DwC) where CatalogNumber=n1; Search fir record(s) (full DwC) where CatalogNumber=n1 and InstitutionCode=i1 and CollectionCode=i2;
For BioCASe providers, I issue directly equivalent requests (UnitId for CatalogNumber, etc.), and also:
Scan values for SourceInstitutionCode.
Thanks,
Donald

Hi Roger,
Rebecca Shapley did some studies on queries to the MaNIS network during her study of the usability of the MaNIS portal. I believe she has some pretty concrete numbers about the types of queries that DiGIR providers typically encounter. If you'd like I can also put together something from the HerpNET portal logs (they are pretty useless without some massaging) for the last couple of months.

Thanks for this Rob.
I have written to Rebecca to see what she has.
I'd be grateful for anything you could easily put together from the HerpNET logs. What I would be most interested in is the types of calls that were made and their frequency. Don't spend too much time on it but anything you can do quickly would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Roger
