D5.1 - WoRMS/LOD Gap Analysis

This document prepares on deliverable D5.2 (WoRMS/LOD implementation) by listing up the essential parts that need to be developed together with some motivation and attention to important detail. It does so by considering the current state of the existing WoRMS data management system (Aphia) as well as the recently made available D4.1 (Architecture whitepaper) and the upcoming D3.1, D3.2 (Preliminary resp. Final Ontology design and development). It is targeted to be a clear guide towards implementation for the developers as well as a concise description of what services can be expected by consuming parties upon delivery of D5.2.
