    Description
    1. Species’ ranges are changing at accelerating rates. Species distribution models (SDMs) are powerful tools that help rangers and decision-makers prepare for reintroductions, range shifts, reductions, and/or expansions by predicting habitat suitability across landscapes. Yet, range-expanding or -shifting species in particular face other challenges that traditional SDM procedures cannot quantify, due to large differences between a species’ currently-occupied range and potential future range. The realism of SDMs is thus lost and not as useful for conservation management in practice. Here, we address these challenges with an extended assessment of habitat suitability through an integrated SDM database (iSDMdb).

    2. The iSDMdb is a spatial database of predicted sites in a species’ prediction range, derived from SDM results, and is a single spatial feature that contains additional, user-friendly data fields that synthesise and summarise SDM predictions and uncertainty, human impacts, restoration features, novel preferences in novel spaces, and management priorities. To illustrate its utility, we used the endangered New Zealand sea lion (Phocarctos hookeri). We consulted with wildlife rangers, decision-makers, and sea lion experts to supplement SDM predictions with additional, more realistic, and applicable information for management.

    3. Almost half the data fields included in this database resulted from engaging with these end-users during our study. The SDM found 395 predicted sites. However, the iSDMdb’s additional assessments showed that the actual suitability of most sites (90%) was questionable due to human impacts. >50% of sites contained unnatural barriers (fences, grazing grasslands), and 75% of sites had roads located within the species’ range of inland movement. Just 5% of the predicted sites were mostly (>80%) protected.

    4. Integrating SDM results with supplemental assessments provides a way to address SDM limitations, especially for range-expanding or -shifting species. SDM products for conservation applications have been critiqued for lacking transparency and interpretation support, and ineffectively communicating uncertainty. The iSDMdb addresses these issues and enhances the practical relevance and utility of SDMs for stakeholders, rangers, and decision-makers. We exemplify how to build an iSDMdb using open-source tools, and how to make diverse, complex assessments more accessible for end-users.

    Methods We created an iSDMdb using the New Zealand sea lion (Phocarctos hookeri) as an example. Enclosed are the R scripts and table summaries that describe the methods.

    The original data used for this study were obtained from Land Information New Zealand (http://data.linz.govt.nz), Stats New Zealand (https://data.mfe.govt.nz), New Zealand Department of Conservation (DOC), https://koordinates.com, Ministry for the Environment, and Landcare New Zealand (https://lris.scinfo.org.nz), under New Zealand Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 and Landcare Data Use licensing.

    Description

    This archive contains the accompanying data and source code of our study 'Relations Between Relevance Assessments, Bibliometrics and Altmetrics' submitted to BIR 2020 @ ECIR 2020. In order to reproduce our study, the iSearch collection is needed. After downloading this archive, place the folders `PF/` and `PN/` in the root directory. The directory `spreadsheets` contains the results of our final evaluation. The required data for these results can be found in the directory `data`, that contains the output of the scripts (in the directory `src`).

    Abstract:

    Relevance assessment in retrieval test collections and citations/mentions of scientific documents are two different forms of relevance decisions. To investigate the relations between these direct and indirect forms of relevance decisions, we combine arXiv data with Web of Science and Altmetrics data. In this new collection, we assess the effect of relevance ratings on measured perception in the form of citations or mentions, likes, tweets, et cetera. The impact of our work is that we could show a relation between direct relevance assessments and indirect relevance signals.

    Description

    Between 2015 and 2022, numerous consuming countries in North America, Europe, and Oceania have proposed or passed legislation aimed to improve the environmental and social sustainability of businesses’ supply chains. These fall into three categories: disclosure-based legislation, mandating that companies report on sustainability-related risks and their approach to reducing it; due diligence legislation, which mandates companies to implement procedures to assess, mitigate, and remediate sustainability-related risks in their supply chains; and trade-based legislation, which prohibits the import of specific types of goods linked to adverse outcomes. We can further distinguish between single-issue legislation on the issues of labor problems (modern slavery/forced labor/child labor) and deforestation in the supply chain, and legislations with broader human rights and environmental scope. This database and the related report aim to provide an overview of the status, scope, and requirements of various laws that are tabled or already in force, with a particular focus on how they are likely to affect the coffee sector and actors within it.

    2023 update:The 2023 version of the database updates the status of the respective regulations and expands the scope of search also to emerging consuming countries (e.g. in Asia) and producing countries (e.g. in Latin America). Please see country scope below. In the 2023 version of the database, we further added the category of "National Strategies, Action Plans, and Guidelines" to refer to soft law approaches that are more common in certain regions (such as Asia) to date. For completeness, we furthermore added select regulations (e.g. the US Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act) that have likely low relevance to the coffee sector but indicate a broader trend of the use of due diligence and trade instruments. The risk level of each legislation for coffee actors is described in column AQ. Green highlighted names of legislations highlight new additions to the database, while green highlighted cells indicate changes in criteria of legislations that were already part of the 2022 database.

    This database was last updated on 14.09.2023, and contains information that was correct to the best of the authors' knowledge up to that date.

    Description

    This dataset contains data collected during a study "Understanding the development of public data ecosystems: from a conceptual model to a six-generation model of the evolution of public data ecosystems" conducted by Martin Lnenicka (University of Hradec Králové, Czech Republic), Anastasija Nikiforova (University of Tartu, Estonia), Mariusz Luterek (University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland), Petar Milic (University of Pristina - Kosovska Mitrovica, Serbia), Daniel Rudmark (Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute, Sweden), Sebastian Neumaier (St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences, Austria), Karlo Kević (University of Zagreb, Croatia), Anneke Zuiderwijk (Delft University of Technology, Delft, the Netherlands), Manuel Pedro Rodríguez Bolívar (University of Granada, Granada, Spain).

    As there is a lack of understanding of the elements that constitute different types of value-adding public data ecosystems and how these elements form and shape the development of these ecosystems over time, which can lead to misguided efforts to develop future public data ecosystems, the aim of the study is: (1) to explore how public data ecosystems have developed over time and (2) to identify the value-adding elements and formative characteristics of public data ecosystems. Using an exploratory retrospective analysis and a deductive approach, we systematically review 148 studies published between 1994 and 2023. Based on the results, this study presents a typology of public data ecosystems and develops a conceptual model of elements and formative characteristics that contribute most to value-adding public data ecosystems, and develops a conceptual model of the evolutionary generation of public data ecosystems represented by six generations called Evolutionary Model of Public Data Ecosystems (EMPDE). Finally, three avenues for a future research agenda are proposed.

    This dataset is being made public both to act as supplementary data for "Understanding the development of public data ecosystems: from a conceptual model to a six-generation model of the evolution of public data ecosystems ", Telematics and Informatics*, and its Systematic Literature Review component that informs the study.

    The positional accuracy of spatial data is a statistical estimate of the degree to which planimetric coordinates and elevations of features agree with their real world values. The planimetric accuracy attainable in the vector data will be composed of errors from three sources:

    1. The positional accuracy of the source material

    2. Errors due to the conversion processes.

    3. Errors due to the manipulation processes.

    This specification cannot prescribe a figure for the planimetric accuracy of the existing source material used for capture of community distributions as it has already been produced. The errors due to the digitising process depend on the accuracy of the digitising table set-up or the scanner resolution, systematic errors in the equipment, errors due to software and errors specific to the operator. An accepted standard for digitising is that the line accuracy should be within half a line width.

    Non Quantitative accuracy:

    Tests are undertaken to ensure that there are no errors in attributes:

    • The spatial resolution of the data is reflected in the Presence Categories

    • Presence categories are one of:

    * Community known to occur within area

    * Community likely to occur within area

    * Community may occur within area (general indication only)

    Conceptual consistency:

    Tests undertaken for logical consistency:

    • Names of export files and data quality table are correct

    • Table names are valid

    • Item names in coverages are valid

    • Item names are present in coverage attribute files

    • Label points and entity point features have only one coordinate pair

    • The Arc/Info coverages can be generated, have attributes attached and be 'built'

    • In polygon coverages there are no label errors i.e. every polygon has one and only one polygon label point

    • Data format, projection and data type are correct

    • There are no overshoots, i.e. arc overhangs at intersections (1% error acceptable)

    • There are no undershoots, i.e. arcs failing to meet at intersections (0.5% error acceptable)

    • There are no new polygons smaller than the minimum specified area (5% error acceptable)

    • There are no new linear features shorter than the minimum length (5% error acceptable)

    • There are no artefacts such as spikes or deviations visible at 1:125 000 (5% error acceptable)

    • Separate covers have exactly coincident lines where intended (5% error acceptable)

    Completeness omission:

    The database is continually being updated as the lists of threatened ecological communities on schedules of the EPBC Act are amended.

    Legend for interpreting the data of the

    Kiel South Asian Typological Database

    This corpus was originally compiled under the direction of John Peterson by Jessica Katiuscia Ivani, with contributions by Netra Prasad Paudyal, Nikita König, Lennart Chevallier, Anika Besser, Nellia Bleyer, Sarah Anders and Josephine Hennig in the project “Towards a linguistic prehistory of eastern central South Asia (and beyond)”, financed by the German Research Council (DFG, Project Grant 326697274). The database has since been considerably expanded and the data have been re-checked and corrected, where necessary, by John Peterson and Lennart Chevallier.

    This database includes information on up to 237 features (described below) for 40 languages from the Indo-Aryan, Munda and Dravidian families, as well as the isolates Kusunda and Nihali. Of these 237 features, 98 derive from the Grambank database of the Glottobank research consortium and were compiled by the members of our project in cooperation with that project. We include here only those 98 features from that database which we felt are of particular relevance for South Asia.

    All updates will be documented in detail with respect to the changes made, together with the date of the respective update.

    Feature values: The features are encoded as follows for all languages:

    1 – the respective feature is found in this language

    0 – the respective feature is not found in this language

    ? – it is not clear from the available data sources whether this feature is found in the respective language or not

    NA – this section of the data has not yet been completed for the relevant data

    The values of the multistate features – GB024, GB025, GB065, & GB193 – state, whether the adnominal element precedes (1) or follows (2) the noun or both orders occur (3).

    Features labeled “GB” are features from the original Grambank database compiled by members of our project. As the labeling of features in that database may have changed somewhat since that time, the labels found here may no longer correlate one-to-one with those features. We hope to synchronize these labels in the near future, but until then users of these features will have to check these on their own.

    The feature labels “NGB”, “JPP” and “SA” refer only to different stages during the compilation of the data in our own project and are not relevant to the analysis of the data themselves.

    The primary areas of grammar covered by the relevant features (e.g., ergativity, classifiers, negation, number, etc.) have been indicated on the right-hand side of the features list for many of these features. This list is not exhaustive and is only intended to serve as an initial orientation.

    Use of these data

    These data may be freely used in scientific research under the following two conditions:

    1. That you properly cite this database, including the following information:

      Ivani, Jessica Katiuscia, Peterson, John & Chevallier, Lennart. 2022. The Kiel South Asian Typological Database. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7298604. [Date of last access].
    2. That you inform us in the event of incorrect data in the table, should you find any, so that we can recheck these ourselves.

      We would also be grateful if you would send us a copy of your work using these data.

    We expressly welcome input on the data from experts in the languages contained in this database and on further languages of the subcontinent!

    Description

    In many disciplines, data are highly decentralized across thousands of online databases (repositories, registries, and knowledgebases). Wringing value from such databases depends on the discipline of data science and on the humble bricks and mortar that make integration possible; identifiers are a core component of this integration infrastructure. Drawing on our experience and on work by other groups, we outline 10 lessons we have learned about the identifier qualities and best practices that facilitate large-scale data integration. Specifically, we propose actions that identifier practitioners (database providers) should take in the design, provision and reuse of identifiers. We also outline the important considerations for those referencing identifiers in various circumstances, including by authors and data generators. While the importance and relevance of each lesson will vary by context, there is a need for increased awareness about how to avoid and manage common identifier problems, especially those related to persistence and web-accessibility/resolvability. We focus strongly on web-based identifiers in the life sciences; however, the principles are broadly relevant to other disciplines.

    Abstract

    \[x\[This dataset was superseded by GIP AssetList Database v1.3 20150212

    The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

    This dataset contains the spatial and non-spatial (attribute) components of the Gippsland bioregion Asset List as two .mdb files, which are readable as an MS Access database or as an ESRI Personal Geodatabase.

    Under the BA program, a spatial assets database is developed for each defined bioregional assessment project. The spatial elements that underpin the identification of water dependent assets are identified in the first instance by regional NRM organisations (via the WAIT tool) and supplemented with additional elements from national and state/territory government datasets. All reports received associated with the WAIT process for Gippsland are included in the zip file as part of this dataset.

    Elements are initially included in the preliminary assets database if they are partly or wholly within the bioregion's preliminary assessment extent (Materiality Test 1, M1). Elements are then grouped into assets which are evaluated by project teams to determine whether they meet the second Materiality Test (M2). Assets meeting both Materiality Tests comprise the water dependent asset list. Descriptions of the assets identified in the Gippsland bioregion are found in the "AssetList" table of the database. In this version of the database only M1 has been assessed.

    Assets are the spatial features used by project teams to model scenarios under the BA program. Detailed attribution does not exist at the asset level. Asset attribution includes only the core set of BA-derived attributes reflecting the BA classification hierarchy, as described in Appendix A of "AssetList_database_GIP_v1p2_20150130.doc", located in the zip file as part of this dataset.

    The "Element_to_Asset" table contains the relationships and identifies the elements that were grouped to create each asset.

    Detailed information describing the database structure and content can be found in the document "AssetList_database_GIP_v1p2_20150130.doc" located in the zip file.

    Some of the source data used in the compilation of this dataset is restricted.

    Description

    The primary research question for which these data have been used, was: ‘How patient-relevant are outcomes measured in clinical trials for breast cancer drugs?’. Subquestions were: 1. Which treatment outcomes are relevant for breast cancer patients? 2. Which outcome measures are used in clinical trials for breast cancer drugs? 3. How much overlap is there between patient-relevant outcomes and outcomes measured in clinical trials?The dataset has been used to answer subquestion 2. Data have been obtained by searching Clinicaltrials.gov for trials conducted between January 2014 and March 2024 inclusive. Further inclusion criteria were that studies had to be phase III trials and had to focus on breast cancer, adults (18-64 years old) and drugs. Interventions focusing on lifestyle changes, Chinese medicine, anaesthesia, surgery and diagnostic methods were excluded. Ultimately, 264 trials were included and forty-five excluded. To determine the outcome measures used, the study plan of every included trial was reviewed and recorded on the data sheet.

  1. Species’ ranges are changing at accelerating rates. Species distribution models (SDMs) are powerful tools that help rangers and decision-makers prepare for reintroductions, range shifts, reductions, and/or expansions by predicting habitat suitability across landscapes. Yet, range-expanding or -shifting species in particular face other challenges that traditional SDM procedures cannot quantify, due to large differences between a species’ currently-occupied range and potential future range. The realism of SDMs is thus lost and not as useful for conservation management in practice. Here, we address these challenges with an extended assessment of habitat suitability through an integrated SDM database (iSDMdb).

  2. The iSDMdb is a spatial database of predicted sites in a species’ prediction range, derived from SDM results, and is a single spatial feature that contains additional, user-friendly data fields that synthesise and summarise SDM predictions and uncertainty, human impacts, restoration features, novel preferences in novel spaces, and management priorities. To illustrate its utility, we used the endangered New Zealand sea lion (Phocarctos hookeri). We consulted with wildlife rangers, decision-makers, and sea lion experts to supplement SDM predictions with additional, more realistic, and applicable information for management.

  3. Almost half the data fields included in this database resulted from engaging with these end-users during our study. The SDM found 395 predicted sites. However, the iSDMdb’s additional assessments showed that the actual suitability of most sites (90%) was questionable due to human impacts. >50% of sites contained unnatural barriers (fences, grazing grasslands), and 75% of sites had roads located within the species’ range of inland movement. Just 5% of the predicted sites were mostly (>80%) protected.

  4. Integrating SDM results with supplemental assessments provides a way to address SDM limitations, especially for range-expanding or -shifting species. SDM products for conservation applications have been critiqued for lacking transparency and interpretation support, and ineffectively communicating uncertainty. The iSDMdb addresses these issues and enhances the practical relevance and utility of SDMs for stakeholders, rangers, and decision-makers. We exemplify how to build an iSDMdb using open-source tools, and how to make diverse, complex assessments more accessible for end-users.

Methods We created an iSDMdb using the New Zealand sea lion (Phocarctos hookeri) as an example. Enclosed are the R scripts and table summaries that describe the methods.
