the anonymous column-shape mapping.
What we refused to interpret
Two of your columns say the same thing — which one did you mean?
Their names both point at a Darwin Core term and their values cannot
separate them, so we refused rather than guess. You can read them in a second; we cannot.
Leave one blank and it stays refused — that is a valid answer.
Your file is sent once more and discarded again. We
keep your answer as an anonymous column-shape label — never the column, never a value.

A .zip containing occurrence.txt,
meta.xml and eml.xml — the format GBIF ingests, unchanged.
Your file is sent once more to build the archive and is discarded again
the moment it is returned. We keep nothing between these two steps — which is why the
download re-sends the file rather than fetching one we stored.
