Where this comes from

Abstract

Motivated by the challenges of decentralized genetic data spread across multiple international organizations, GINSA leverages the Global Biodiversity Information Facility infrastructure to automatically retrieve and link small ribosomal subunit sequences with locality information. Testing on taxa from major organism groups demonstrates broad applicability across taxonomic levels and dataset sizes. GINSA is a freely accessible Python program under the MIT License and can be installed from PyPI via pip.
