2 weeks ago @damianooldoni I've assigned this task to you:
- [ ] Review Matt's species occurrence cube page and see if anything from your Get Started needs to be included
- [ ] Add Matt's "Generate a species occurrence cube using Microsoft Azure Databricks" to page
- [ ] Add your "Create a cube from a checklist" as a page to this repo, as
pages/cube-from-checklist.md - [ ] Delete https://github.com/damianooldoni/b3cubes-sql-examples

Hi 👋
I wrote two tutorials about generating occurrence cubes using SQL queries. See https://damianooldoni.github.io/b3cubes-sql-examples/, from my repo b3cubes-sql-examples. I didn't spend too much time in the website as my goal is to archive the repo once we transfer the tutorial(s) to this b-cubed repo.
The first tutorial (Getting Started) is a more detailed demo of the documentation provided by GBIF in its tech docs. The most important point is the last section (Your first species occurrence cube) where I included some observations popping up in the wp2 slack channel (@MattBlissett, @beukueb). I think this document can be used to improve the GBIF tech docs and so not needed to be added to this repo. But I can be wrong... Interesting what you think about it.
The second tutorial (occurrence cubes from a GBIF checklist) is the main contribution and it extends sensibly the present GBIF tech docs by adding all steps to generate an occurrence cube starting from a GBIF checklist and applying relevant spatial filters and other important aspects for researchers. It also include some observations popping up in the wp2 slack channel (@MattBlissett, @beukueb) about polygons.
@peterdesmet and everybody interested: what do you think about it? Can somebody review it and provide some feedback? Thanks.
