Description

The Polish Ringing Centre was founded in 1931 to coordinate birds ringing in Poland. It collects and exchanges information about birds with Polish rings and ringed birds recovered in Poland. As a member of the European Union for Bird Ringing (EURING) it cooperates with other national ringing centres. So far, over 5 million records of birds marked with Polish rings have been collected in Polish Ringing Centre database, however, another hundreds of thousands need to be digitalised. This dataset contains the ringing data of birds ringed with Polish rings between 1950-1955 and 1967-2011.

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 1,629,608 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.

Project Data

The dataset resulted from the digitization project IMBIO, supported by the Operational Programme Digital Poland in 2020-2023. The IMBIO project is the most extensive Polish enterprise of natural data digitization, with respect to its range, complexity and volume of the processed content. There is 18 participant institutions with the University of Warsaw as a leader. The project delivered 9.5 million of occurrence records, c.a. 2 million of which are based on specimens deposited in collections, and the remaining data derived from other types of scientific sources: card files, legacy materials and bibliography, publicly unavailable older databases. Integration of these resources has made them accessible and searchable. The access platform is the new version of the Biodiversity Map portal (BioMap, https://portal.biomap.pl), while externally the resources are published via the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF).
