To export the data of the specimen
selected in the specimen list
according to the Global Plant Initiative / JSTOR choose
Data -> Export -> XML ->
GPI / JSTOR ... from the
menu. A window will open
where you can set some additional options for the export (see
below). The data sets will be
exported according to the JSTOR
Plant Science Handbook (June 2011).
If the data does not fulfill the
criteria of the
Global Plant Initiative / JSTOR, the errors will be listed as shown
below. You
have to fix these errors in your data to create a valid export file.
To start the
export click on the Start export button.
The data will be exported into a file in your application directory.
Click on
the
button to inspect the exported data (see below).
If the data are not restricted to names linked to a thesaurus (see option in image above), the export will take information like the family from the linked thesaurus if available (e.g. DiversityTaxonNames). Otherwise information stored in DiversityCollection will be used (if available). If neither is available the export will insert a message like "not assigned" and the error report will contain a message like "Family is missing".
