Data Fika #2: Reusing Data from GBIF

Oct 09, 2026 11:00 CET - Oct 09, 2026 11:45 CET
Online

Session 2 of Data Fika, GBIF Sweden's monthly online series on biodiversity data. Website downloads, rgbif, pygbif and the API — reproducible downloads and their DOIs, cubes, Darwin Core Archives, and when to use SBDI vs GBIF.org.

The spine of the series: getting data out of GBIF in a reproducible, citable way. We cover website downloads, rgbif, pygbif and the API, download DOIs, cubes, occurrence vs sample data, Darwin Core Archives and DwC-DP, and when to use SBDI vs GBIF.org.

An optional hands-on companion workshop follows this session: everyone pulls, filters and cites their own download. The date is announced with the session invitation.

Data Fika sessions are free, online and open to everyone — 20–30 minutes of presentation followed by about 15 minutes of hands-on work and Q&A. Email gbif@nrm.se to be added to the invitation list, and see the full programme on the Data Fika page.
