Biodiversity Data Quality Hub
http://www.gbif.es/BDQ One of the commitments that GBIF Spain took home from the past "European Nodes meeting, Paris 2011", was to compile and provide access to what was available regarding "biodiversity data quality" or, if you prefer," data fitness for use". This is what we have done: www.gbif.es/BDQ. We have structured the information in tools, thesauri, training and procedures and experiences. The Prezi interactive presentation on top of the page is intended for presentations. The list below provides direct links to the resources as well as to a short (metadata) record of each resource. We have made BDQ metadata compatible with the GBIF Online Resource Centre (www.gbif.org/orc). Adding other resources is possible by using a simple form, also accessible from the DBQ page.
