Description
This dataset provides distribution data of Lichens in Switzerland of the National Data and Information Centre, called Swiss Lichens. SwissLichens is a partner of InfoSpecies, the network of Swiss data and information centers for fauna, flora and fungi. One of its main objectives is to document the spatial and temporal distribution of species in Switzerland. The SwissLichens database currently contains more than 250'000 georeferenced Lichen observations, distributed throughout Switzerland. The oldest observations date back to 1790. A large portion of the records date from the last two decades of the last century to the present day. The database is continuously updated with new findings. The data have been validated and originate from national inventories, from research projects, from floristic observations by volunteers as well as from private and public herbaria and from literature.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 218,094 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
