数据托管中心（DHC）可在其IPT 装置上为用户提供一个账户，使您能够管理自己的数据集，并通过 GBIF.org 发布这些数据集。
我们强烈推荐使用 DHC，因为它可以节省自行安装 IPT 所需的时间、费用和计算资源。 DHC 用户也更有可能获得使用自己语言的服务台支持。
请使用此页面按国家或按主题查找适合您的受信任的DHC。 如果没有合适的 DHC，或者 DHC 没有及时回复您的询问，请联系GBIF 服务台寻求帮助。
数据托管中心的标准
中心必须满足以下一系列严格要求，才能获得向数据发布者推荐的特权：
- 他们的IPT几乎100%的时间都是在线的
- 他们可以通过以下方式正确地管理其IPT
- 保持更新至最新版本
- Keeping the operating system and servlet container (if used) up-to-date
- Ensuring the IPT data directory is regularly backed up
- Managing user accounts
- Managing IPT cores and extensions
- They have a proven track-record of hosting data for publishers in their country
- They can provide prompt and knowledgeable help desk support:
- They know how to use the IPT to publish data through GBIF.org
- They know about biodiversity data standards in general
- They know how to publish data papers
If you host an IPT instance, believe your DHC meets these standards, and would like to offer your services to publishers in your country, please email helpdesk@gbif.org.
