Hi all!
About The UML Habitats and Biotopes Scheme in the Habitats Species Type table it said this;
Closed codelist of accepted PAN-european taxonomical reference lists defining the nomenclature and taxonomical concept of a given species name. This must not be regarded as the ultimate taxonomic truth: this will always change. It serves as a definition of a taxonomic concept described by systematic and synonym relations where other names and there inherent taxonomic concepts can be mapped to. The code list comprises of Eu-Nomen, EUNIS and Natura2000. In these sources harmonized species GUIDs and names are maintained by institutions with an assignment outside INSPIRE and the species names are to be retrieved through webservices using GUIDs. Only one of these list must be used for one taxon. The priority is as follows: 1) EU-Nomen, 2) EUNIS, 3) NatureDirectives. This implies: if a taxon is listed in EU-Nomen, this reference must be used as first choice. If it is not listed in EU-Nomen, the second choice is EUNIS, if not in EUNIS, NatureDirectives can be used.
But I couldn,t find any code for Reference Species Id on Eu-nomen website so I should use EUNIS but I have already used it in other table in the model therefor I have decided to use Habitat dírective annex I, have i done well?
Thank you in advance
Hello Beatriz,
the reference species ID on EU-Nomen is the URL for the species in question. E.g. if you ask for Bombina bombina you will get the URL http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/taxon.php?GUID=urn:lsid:faunaeur.org:taxname:177876 and this URL is the Code you are supposed to add to the data field. If you don't find the species in question on EU-Nomen (e.g. a moss species), you are supposed to use EUNIS and again there the URL (e.g. https://eunis.eea.europa.eu/species/2814 ) and so on.
Hope this helps, Dirk
ok, but in mt case the specie is pinus halepensis mill and it doesn´t appear the code : (http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/taxon.php?GUID=F3C17C56-71C1-47E0-BB0F-BF9B8B569CD6) so I guess it is enough just de url with the guid in question?
Hi Beatriz,
the encoding provided by Dirk (thank you Dirk
) is the correct one.
Just to suggest a modus operandi, I would only add that, if you search for the 'ReferenceSpeciesCodeValue' in the INSPIRE code list registry (http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/codelist/ReferenceSpeciesCodeValue) and click on the EU-Nomen Code, you can get the external reference link to the eu nomen portal 'advanced search' (http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/search.php?search=adv), in which you can type in the desired species and get the URL to put in the 'referenceSpeciesId' field.
Best,
Stefania
Hi Stefania! yes i understood what you´ve said but my only doubt is that in the species I am looking for It doesn´t appear a proper code so I mean this : (http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/taxon.php?GUID=F3C17C56-71C1-47E0-BB0F-BF9B8B569CD6) just appear in the end of the url the guid,so is that enough?
Thank you very much! have a nive day!
Yes Beatriz
,
you could also provide the label of the code list value in the <xlink: title> element.
In your case , this means that in the GML dataset you have
<hb:referenceSpeciesId
xlink:href=" http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/taxon.php?GUID=F3C17C56-71C1-47E0-BB0F-BF9B8B569CD6"
xlink:title=" Pinus halepensis Mill"/>
Hope this clarifies your doubts,
Stefania
Yes Stefania, you´ve been very helpful, thank you very much. Do you know where is possible to find a real example to see if I am doing it well??
Nice day!
