Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF): an exhaustive list of gbif record ids, dataset keys, and their associated Occurrence IDs, Institution Code, Collection Codes and Catalog Numbers. hash://sha256/ea88f03a7bfd1ba853fdbea3203d54ab81ac3cdc8e8da7c96bbbba9c4b05d933 hash://md5/c49fe34785354847b37ea4509261e130

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:

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.
