description: The Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) indexes thousands of biodiversity datasets from Natural History Collections, citizen science initiatives (e.g., iNaturalist, eBird), and other sources. As part of the index process, GBIF associates at least two identifiers with indexed records: a record id (aka gbifID) and a dataset id (aka dataset key). These ids are central to do lookup, reference data, and package interpreted data products. This publication contains an exhaustive list of GBIF IDs and ids associated by their data providers as derived from: GBIF.org (01 March 2023) GBIF Occurrence Download https://doi.org/10.15468/dl.pk3trq The resource (size: ~260GB) provided by GBIF had content id hash://sha256/c8bac8acb28c8524c53589b3a40e322dbbbdadf5689fef2e20266fbf6ddf6b97 and was used to generate the resource included in this publication using <pre><code class="language-bash">preston cat 'zip:hash://sha256/c8bac8acb28c8524c53589b3a40e322dbbbdadf5689fef2e20266fbf6ddf6b97!/0015281-230224095556074.csv'\ | cut -f 1,2,3,37,38,39\ | gzip\ &gt; gbifid.tsv.gz </code></pre> with the content id of gbifid.tsv.gz (size: ~35GB) being hash://sha256/a339e32e10edaad585f61f2ded06cbb23e0618c65a6360db18d7d729054940a8 . the first 10 lines of gbifid.tsv.gz as extracted via <pre><code>preston cat --remote https://zenodo.org/record/7789866/files,https://linker.bio hash://sha256/a339e32e10edaad585f61f2ded06cbb23e0618c65a6360db18d7d729054940a8\ | gunzip\ | head</code></pre> are: <pre><code>gbifID datasetKey occurrenceID institutionCode collectionCode catalogNumber 2997162320 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 3399442 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00109669 2997162309 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 2733085 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00000818 2997162317 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 2733086 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00000888 2997162313 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 3399443 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00109744 2997162306 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 2733087 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00000889 2997162316 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 3399440 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00109605 2997162324 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 2733088 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00000890 2997162308 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 3399441 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00109615 2997162303 c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 2733089 CEPEC CEPEC CEPEC00000891</code></pre> Note that at time of writing, the html resource associated with the occurrence id 2997162320, and data set key c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 (extracted from of the first data row example above) are available via: https://gbif.org/occurrence/2997162320 and https://gbif.org/dataset/c71c8000-9fc7-422c-804a-ce6abe751771 respectively. This resource was initially created to help integrate with Bionomia (https://bionomia.net) to help associate people identifiers provided by bionomia to their original records via their GBIF ids. Bionomia re-uses GBIF records ids as a way to define links between records and the people (e.g., curators, collectors, identifiers) that worked on them. In other words, this resource provides a versioned translation table from the GBIF data universe (as defined by GBIF record ids, and dataset keys) to the data collections that exist (and evolve) independent of it. Note that the resource identified by hash://sha256/c8bac8acb28c8524c53589b3a40e322dbbbdadf5689fef2e20266fbf6ddf6b97 was not included in this publication it was too big (260GB) to fit.
