Abstract—The Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) is the largest source of open scientific data on the biodiversity of Russian: over 4.3 million species occurrences became available through GBIF as of May 2020; the most abundant among them are data on vascular plant occurrence (over 1.9 million) and bird occurrence (over 900 thousand). The representativeness of data for other taxonomic groups and most of the regions of the country still remains low, although the amount of available information continues to grow owing to the mobilization of data from scientific collections and personal archives of researchers, as well as from citizen science projects, iNaturalist, and eBird. Data available through the GBIF portal are of great interest to ecologists who work with methods for modeling the spatial distribution of species. However, the existing data gaps for the Russian territory limit the possibilities of their reuse, and it is necessary to address additional sources of information to achieve adequate results.

摘要-全球生物多样性信息基金（GBIF）是有关俄罗斯生物多样性的开放科学数据的最大来源：截至2020年5月，GBIF已经提供了超过430万种物种；其中最丰富的是维管束植物发生率（超过190万）和鸟类发生（超过90万）的数据。尽管由于从科学馆藏和研究人员的个人档案以及公民科学中调集的数据，可用信息的数量继续增长，但其他分类组和该国大多数地区的数据代表性仍然很低项目，iNaturalist和eBird。通过GBIF门户网站可获得的数据对于生态学家非常感兴趣，他们使用的方法可以对物种的空间分布进行建模。然而，
