ABCD (Access to Biological Collection Data), Version 2.06.
ABCD Schema is a comprehensive XML-based standard for the access to and exchange of natural history collection and observational data. The development of ABCD started in 2001; in 2005 it was ratified as TDWG standard. ABCD allows a detailed, atomized mapping of information about collection specimens and results of observations in the field. Data from any arbitrarily structured database can be mapped using freely available open source software (BioCASE provider software - www.biocase.org). Currently ABCD is used to publish data in the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF, www.gbif.org), German Federation for Biological Data (GFBio, www.gfbio.org/), Europeana (www.europeana.eu), etc. The ABCD standard has been extended for the mapping of DNA samples (GGBN, http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/GGBN_Data_Standard) and mineralogical and paleontological records (EFG, Extended for Geoscience, www.geocase.eu/efg) and is used for their publication in thematic specialized portals (GGBN Portal: http://www.ggbn.org/ggbn_portal/ and GeoCase: www.geocase.eu/).
