Hello there,

I am working on a biodiversity project displaying various locations of wildlife species spotted in India. There is a global website called the GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) which uploads known locations of various wildlife species. The problem i am finding is i could not download the data for a larger area and is restricted to one species at a time. Is it possible to scrape the data from the website? Any information would be helpful. I have shared the website link here https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/map

Regards

Hi there,

Thanks for writing. I am a novice to this API and data scraping for Geospatial things. Is there any tutorials you share online that I will be able to follow through on this? Meanwhile, I will try to explore the API you have sent.
