Search GBIF using your map

Draw a bounding box or drop a GeoJSON file on the map to summarize GBIF occurrence records in that area — species, datasets, publishers, years, and record types. Everything runs in your browser, no data is stored. To view and download full records, press the View on GBIF button after querying.

Why this tool?

Built to help Indigenous communities and other land stewards see who has published biodiversity records on their territory — who collected data, when, and from which institution. Read the Guardian Connector GBIF guide for more on using GBIF responsibly in community context.
