title: UC Santa Barbara Invertebrate Zoology Collection (UCSB-IZC) Data Archive and Biodiversity Dataset Graph hash://md5/10663911550bb52a0f5741993f82db9d hash://sha256/80c0f5fc598be1446d23c95141e87880c9e53773cb2e0b5b54cb57a8ea00b20c

description: A biodiversity dataset graph: UCSB-IZC


The intended use of this archive is to facilitate (meta-)analysis of the UC Santa Barbara Invertebrate Zoology Collection (UCSB-IZC). UCSB-IZC is a natural history collection of invertebrate zoology at Cheadle Center of Biodiversity and Ecological Restoration, University of California Santa Barbara.


This dataset provides versioned snapshots of the UCSB-IZC network as tracked by Preston [2,3] between 2021-10-08 and 2021-11-04 using [preston track "https://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search/?datasetKey=d6097f75-f99e-4c2a-b8a5-b0fc213ecbd0"].


This archive contains 14349 images related to 32533 occurrence/specimen records. See included sample-image.jpg and their associated meta-data sample-image.json [4].


The images were counted using:


$ preston cat hash://sha256/80c0f5fc598be1446d23c95141e87880c9e53773cb2e0b5b54cb57a8ea00b20c\
 | grep -o -P ".*depict"\
 | sort\
 | uniq\
 | wc -l


And the occurrences were counted using:


$ preston cat hash://sha256/80c0f5fc598be1446d23c95141e87880c9e53773cb2e0b5b54cb57a8ea00b20c\
 | grep -o -P "occurrence/([0-9])+"\
 | sort\
 | uniq\
 | wc -l


The archive consists of 256 individual parts (e.g., preston-00.tar.gz, preston-01.tar.gz, ...) to allow for parallel file downloads. The archive contains three types of files: index files, provenance files and data files. Only two index and provenance files are included and have been individually included in this dataset publication. Index files provide a way to links provenance files in time to establish a versioning mechanism.


To retrieve and verify the downloaded UCSB-IZC biodiversity dataset graph, first download preston-*.tar.gz. Then, extract the archives into a "data" folder. Alternatively, you can use the Preston [2,3] command-line tool to "clone" this dataset using:


$ java -jar preston.jar clone --remote https://archive.org/download/preston-ucsb-izc/data.zip/,https://zenodo.org/record/5557670/files,https://zenodo.org/record/5660088/files/


After that, verify the index of the archive by reproducing the following provenance log history:


$ java -jar preston.jar history
<urn:uuid:0659a54f-b713-4f86-a917-5be166a14110> <http://purl.org/pav/hasVersion> <hash://sha256/d5eb492d3e0304afadcc85f968de1e23042479ad670a5819cee00f2c2c277f36> .
<hash://sha256/80c0f5fc598be1446d23c95141e87880c9e53773cb2e0b5b54cb57a8ea00b20c> <http://purl.org/pav/previousVersion> <hash://sha256/d5eb492d3e0304afadcc85f968de1e23042479ad670a5819cee00f2c2c277f36> .


To check the integrity of the extracted archive, confirm that each line produce by the command "preston verify" produces lines as shown below, with each line including "CONTENT_PRESENT_VALID_HASH". Depending on hardware capacity, this may take a while.


$ java -jar preston.jar verify
