Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS)
收藏资源简介:
ITIS is an easily accessible database with reliable information on species names and their hierarchical classification that is publicly accessible with unlimited free use. The database is reviewed periodically to ensure high quality with valid classifications, revisions, and additions of newly described species. The ITIS includes documented taxonomic information of flora and fauna from both aquatic and terrestrial habitats. For each scientific name, ITIS includes the authority, taxonomic rank, a unique taxonomic serial number, data source information, data quality indicators, and associated synonyms and vernacular names where available. Geographic coverage is worldwide, with an emphasis on North American taxa. The ITIS Web Services provide the ability to search and retrieve data from ITIS by providing access to the data behind the ITIS web site (http://www.itis.gov/web_service.html#). There is also web interface for viewing reports, and several options for text downloads. Each part of the basic WSDL web services is provided by a web service API, which defines the name, input to, and output from the service for a particular data request.

整合分类学信息系统(Integrated Taxonomic Information System,简称ITIS)是一个易于访问的数据库,收录物种名称及其层级分类体系的可靠信息,面向公众开放且可无限制免费使用。该数据库会定期开展审核工作,以确保分类信息准确有效,及时完成分类体系修订与新描述物种的收录。ITIS涵盖了水生与陆生生境中动植物的已归档分类学信息。针对每一个科学学名,ITIS均包含其命名人、分类阶元、唯一分类序列号、数据源信息、数据质量标识,以及可供使用的相关同物异名与俗名。其地理覆盖范围覆盖全球,重点关注北美类群。ITIS网络服务(Web Services)可通过访问ITIS官网背后的数据接口(http://www.itis.gov/web_service.html#),实现数据的检索与获取。平台同时提供用于查看分类报告的网页界面,以及多种文本下载选项。基础WSDL网络服务的各个模块均通过网络服务应用程序接口(API)提供,该接口定义了特定数据请求对应的服务名称、输入参数与输出结果。如需了解更多详细信息,请访问 http://www.itis.gov/ws_description.html;若需开发网络服务客户端,请访问 http://www.itis.gov/ws_develop.html。
