Overview

Based on conversation with C. Parr Mar. 3/10

EOL transfer documentation is here: [[1]], with a glossary here: http://eol.org/files/pdfs/docs/EOL_Transfer_Schema_Glossary.pdf

Mx content types should map to the Species Profile Model [[2]]

Preparing EOL files: http://hickory.eol.org:8081/display/dev/Preparing+EOL+Schema+Files (includes XML validation)

  • no specimens
  • images are linked to taxa, captions should clearly denote
  • image and object metadata take care of the attribution and licensing of the objects

To do (mx)

  • settle on routing for services API /api/eol?
  • write Template#eol returning an XML object as per the "mushroom" example
  • have EOL hit /eol, get a list of available pages, then crawl the other URIs
  • consider formalizing or providing the SPM "content_types" as defaults
