The Darwin Core standard [2] has been used to mobilize the vast majority of specimen occurrence and observational records within the GBIF network. [3] The Darwin Core standard was originally conceived to facilitate the discovery, retrieval, and integration of information about modern biological specimens, their spatio-temporal occurrence, and their supporting evidence housed in collections ...
The Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) is an international organisation that focuses on making scientific data on biodiversity available via the Internet using web services. [1] The data are provided by many institutions from around the world; GBIF's information architecture makes these data accessible and searchable through a ...

It is also used for the Blender user manual [10] and Python API documentation. [11] In 2010, Eric Holscher announced [12] the creation of the Read the Docs project as part of an effort to make maintenance of software documentation easier. Read the Docs automates the process of building and uploading Sphinx documentation after every commit.
For instance, documentation for an API function could note that its parameters cannot be null, that the function itself is not thread safe. [56] Because API documentation tends to be comprehensive, it is a challenge for writers to keep the documentation updated and for users to read it carefully, potentially yielding bugs. [48]
For example, the DITA specification indicates that if the conref attribute of element A contains a path to element B, the contents of element B will display in the location of element A. DITA-compliant publishing solutions, known as DITA processors, must handle the conref attribute according to the specified behaviour.
The Ebbe Nielsen Challenge is an international science competition conducted annually from 2015 onwards by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), with a set of cash prizes that recognize researcher(s)' submissions in creating software or approaches that successfully address a GBIF-issued challenge in the field of biodiversity informatics.
The Catalogue of Life (CoL) is an online database that provides an index of known species of animals, plants, fungi, and microorganisms.It was created in 2001 as a partnership between the global Species 2000 and the American Integrated Taxonomic Information System.
