It includes full taxonomic names and geographical coordinates for each record treating these as both data and metadata, as well as metadata relating to geographical, environmental and climatic attributes. <br>More information on this dataset can be found in the <a href="http://www.freshwatermetadata.eu/metadb/bf_mdb_view.php?entryID=BF_CF15" target="_blank">Freshwater Metadatabase - BF_CF15</a> Queen Mary University of London - School of Geography d.j.horne@qmul.ac.uk principalInvestigator Ostracoda; non-marine; zoobenthos; North America; Europe otherRestrictions internal eng biota -139.93 36.67 19.30 69.25 1850-01-01T00:00:00 2013-12-31T00:00:00 http://dx.doi.org/10.13148/bfcf15 dataset Conformity_001 INSPIRE COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services 2010-12-08 publication See the referenced specification Coordinates of all included records have been checked with the aid of Google Earth, followed by correction and/or validation wherever possible. The results of the checking procedure are recorded in OMEGA by designating each record according to one of three criteria: Green: accurate Amber: acceptable as accurate within limitations of available data Red: uncertain and needs further checking A report on the procedure, including discussions of limitations and spatial resolution issues, will be made available as a pdf. Taxonomic harmonisation between the three component databases has been carried out and a report, including indications where further revision may be necessary, is available as a pdf.
