B-Cubed_data_mobilisation DOI

This repository documents the development of the first B-Cubed data mobilisation. Data has been mobilised from GBIF to the EBV Portal using both the B-Cubed software developed by GBIF and the ebvcube package.

We have started by mobilising the occurrence of species listed in:

  1. The list of Invasive Alien Species (IAS) of EU concern (88 species).
  2. Annex I of the Birds Directive (~200 species)

Later we will mobilise: 3. The Global Reptile Assessment (~10000 species)

The specifications for the generation of the occurence cubes (JSON format) can be found in separate files in this repository.

The code is available in Rmarkdown and rendered as HTML and PDF notebooks. The notebooks are listed in Table 1 for Annex I of the Birds Directive and in Table 2 for IAS of Union concern.
