 Thanks, Tim.  I have seen the chatter on eventType on other fora.  I wonder if some of the ways the Humboldt work has distinguished types of sampling/search events might be useful here, perhaps covering at least most of the main classes  (e.g. restricted searches,
 open, opportunistic).  Something for the group to discuss.  I assume this is being fast tracked for inclusion in the main Darwin Core vocab?</div>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hi all,</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I hope you are all well.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I’d like to draw your attention to the proposal to add eventType to Darwin Core [1].</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">As GBIF look to diversify our data model [2,3], we have identified the need for this term to be able to qualify what kind of events we’re arranging in the hierarchy. We know others have identified this need as well.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Since GBIF are working with the ALA to bring Sampling Event search and download to GBIF and the ALA, we have added eventType for use in the TEST IPTs already [e.g. 4] in a GBIF(!) namespace, allowing this work to progress.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">eventType will likely capture a broad range of values to distinguish between things like visiting events, gathering events, material extraction events etc. It will take time to establish, but we imagine a hierarchical
 controlled vocabulary might be achievable, with an upper taxonomy that provides the anchoring points for communities to hang more specialist eventTypes from.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This might be of use for those creating test datasets to showcase Humboldt as well.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
