2 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November What is PESI? Joint initiative of two Networks of Excellence: EDIT and MarBEF Funded by the European Commission (May 2008 – April 2011) Led by the University of Amsterdam Partnership of 40 institutions in 26 countries with the aim to define and coordinate strategies to enhance the quality and reliability of European biodiversity information

3 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November Integrating taxonomic e-infrastructures in Europe Infrastructural Networks Community Networks Zoological Community Botanical Community Marine Community Mycological Community Expert- networks Focal point networks Authority files & Standards Data e-Infra- structure e-Services

4 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November Three pan-European species checklists to begin with: European Register of Marine Species (ERMS) - More than 30.000 valid (accepted) names Euro+Med plantbase (E+M) - More than 50.000 accepted (valid) names Fauna Europaea (FaEu) - More than 175.000 valid (accepted) names

5 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November The EDIT Common Data Model follows the TDWG Ontology supports all nomenclature codes fulfills the data domains’ requirements

8 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November Quality control mechanisms

9 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November Integrity Checker Level 1 - Syntax of terms (e.g. syntax of scientific names and URLs) Level 2 - Structural integrity (e.g. completeness of name or reference objects) Level 3 - Relational integrity (e.g. taxon relations) Level 4 - Dataset integrity (e.g. classifications in checklists)

10 TDWG 2009 - Montpellier France 09-13th November Checklist overlap and integrity Identify overlap between taxonomic groups in ERMS and Fauna Europaea Identify nomenclatural deviations Identify status conflicts Identify classification conflicts
