SpeciesTMPlugin
Species TM Plugin is a plugin of the Tree Based Access Facilities that defines and maintains tree views of biodiversity data sources exposed by the Species Manager services. Species TM Plugin provides an uniform model to access and storage data from SPD Service. Each Taxon generated via SPD Service is trasformed in a edge-labelled tree by Species TM Plugin.
Tree model
A tree generated by SpeciesTMPlugin has three subtrees:
- DwC: each data from SPD Service is mapped to Darwin Core concepts. A detailed description of the Darwin Core fields is listed here;
- Properties: additional data elements from SPD Service are stored in this subtree.
- Provenance: information about provenance (wasDerivedFrom, wasGeneratedBy).

Bind request
An Activation Record allows the creation of collections. Using an Activation Record the user selects scientific names and data sources to create the collection.
A request has this form:
List<ScientificName> as ScientificName in List<DataSource> return Taxon
If List<DataSource> is empty, Species TM Plugin will retrieve data from all Data Sources.
Examples:
'Carcharodon carcharias' , 'Rosa' in ITIS, CatalogueOfLife return Taxon
'Carcharodon carcharias' , 'Rosa' return Taxon
'Carcharodon carcharias' return Taxon
Maven coordinates
The Maven coordinates of species-tree-plugin of its development versions are:
<groupId>org.gcube.data.access</groupId> <artifactId>species-tree-plugin</artifactId> <version>1.1.0</version>
The request classes are separated from the species-tree-plugin, in a component upon which plugin depends. This component is species-tree-requests.
The Maven coordinates of species-tree-requests of its development versions are:
