French Version
The data exchange on taxon occurrence (OccTax) within the French Nature and Landscape Information System follows the defined priniciples of the SINP protocol, and has been implemented by a dedicated partnering work group.
A taxon occurrence is the observation or non observation of taxon at a date and place by one or more observers, using direct (sight...) or undirect (excrements...) methods of observation.
The standardised data, following a data dictionary, or "Elementary Exchange Data" (DEE), can be exchanged between the SINP actors.
The exchange methods are outlined in the document below.
The national inventory for geological heritage (INPG) was officially started by the ministry for environment in 2007. It aims at realising a comprehensive census of areas comprising « geological, mineral, or paleontological wealth» on the national territory. The National Natural History Museum (MNHN) assumes the scientific responsibility (methodology, national validation) for said census.
The procedures to follow for data exchange on this subject are described in the documents below.
Governance for data standards, creation and evolution, version 1
The data dictionary specifies the information to be exchanged as well as the semantic rules to be followed:
Standard d'échanges d'occurrences de taxon v1.2.1
Standard d'échanges d'occurrences de taxon v2.0 version longue
The document on the unique identifier describes the methods used to identify data exchange within the SINP: Unique identifier of the SINP
