title: Global Biotic Interactions (GloBI) Review Dataset Corpus hash://md5/c326e584fb61f95d0075710c63dc2a33 hash://sha256/bc0292584334bfa2c5babdd59a113428dbdfa2ee9380fd692f1b85bcecb00dac

description: To help make species interaction datasets easier to access, Global Biotic Interactions (GloBI, https://globalbioticinteractions.org) reviews existing datasets and makes their associated review reports available via https://zenodo.org/community/globi-review .

This data publication contains data.zip, an archive of versioned datasets under review and datasets.tsv, a list of dataset identifiers associated with those captured in the archive. 

To avoid naming conflicts, content is stored by their content identifiers (i.e., md5 hashes) in data.zip. 

To access the data under review, specialized tools preston and elton may be used. Please see the following technical information section for more details and examples.

 
description: To clone the data locally, use the following bash script:

preston ls \ --algo md5 \ --remote https://zenodo.org \ --anchor hash://md5/c326e584fb61f95d0075710c63dc2a33 \
 > /dev/null

Also, interactions from the corpus can be extracted using 

preston ls \ --algo md5 \ --anchor hash://md5/c326e584fb61f95d0075710c63dc2a33 \ --remote https://zenodo.org \
 | elton stream \ --algo md5 \ --anchor hash://md5/c326e584fb61f95d0075710c63dc2a33 \ --data-dir data \
 | gzip \ > interactions.tsv.gz

with the first interaction being (in xtab format) -
