I would like to know the distribution of the speciemens of a species present on BOLD system. I notice that on the single sample code it's possible to see the position on Google map. So I would ask if it's possible to map on Google earth the position (if it's present) of the all samples of a species present on BOLD. Thanks.
Emanuele,
If you have a list of the station (point) coordinates along with a descriptive field, then you can use this tool:

Dear Gregory,
the problem is that on BLOD there's not a file with the list of coordinates.
There are this kind of files: DWC ,XML, TSV. But in these file I didn't find coordinates.

Yes. It looks like they have a great deal invested in mapping the taxonomy and control the release of mapping results by utilizing a close-ended API. But since their BOLDYSTEMS map results for each taxa are in geographic space, you can screen capture them and add them individually as image overlays in Google Earth. Otherwise contact them to gain access to their data through a collaborative effort.
Hi Gregoy,
thanks a lot for your healp. Fortunately I found the solution to my problem!

Hi, I truly appreciate@Mr. Gregory Charles Herman. In this case, you can add them individually as image overlays in Google Earth. Overlays as picture is the best options.
