Hi all, I am very sorry for the short notice but I will not be able to join our meeting tomorrow. Hopefully some of you can still meet and: * review new scope related terms (see slide 14 here<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.goog…>) --> there is no need for bollean terms to start with "A statement about whether..." so you can get creative here! * decide on a definition and term name for isReportedAbundanceAdditive/sumAbundances (slide 15 here<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.goog…>) Zoom link: https://yale.zoom.us/j/97318391101<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googl…> Thanks to all of you who completed the survey! By majority (5 out of 8), it was decided to change the namespace to: * Humboldt extension for ecological inventories, eco: We will need to change many documents and some parts of the github repo! I truly apologize for the short notice, I thought I could make it but I have a pretty hard deliverable tomorrow that needs my full attention. All the best, yani Yanina V.

Hallo! Hope everybody is good! In tomorrow's meeting, we need to start planning for the implementation report for TDWG. In order to do this, I will kindly ask you to: * review new scope related terms (see slide 14 here<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.goog…>) * suggest ways to move forward with the term isReportedAbundanceAdditive (?) (slide 15 here<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.goog…>) * Vote to change or not the namespace: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/humboldtTDW<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/humboldtTDWG>v [https://www.surveymonkey.com/collect/images/default_custom_meta_image.jpg]<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/humboldtTDWG> Humboldt Extension (previously Humboldt Core) namespace abbreviation<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/humboldtTDWG> Take this survey powered by surveymonkey.com.

Humboldt Extension namespace abbreviation
by Baskauf, Steven James 16 Feb '23

16 Feb '23

Hi all, This is a follow-up to the brief discussion at the end of our meeting today. I had an idea in the shower (where I frequently have creative thoughts – must be something about being more relaxed) about what to use as a short abbreviation for Humboldt extension IRIs. As an official name for Humboldt, we call it the “Humboldt Extension for Ecological Inventories” or something like that. That already has the benefit of telling people what it’s about. Then for the abbreviation we either use “eco” or “inv” as the abbreviation instead of “humboldt” or “hmbldt”. That would make the IRIs either http://rs.tdwg.org/eco/term/foo or http://rs.tdwg.org/inv/term/foo which would be abbreviated as “eco:foo” or “inv:foo” respectively, following the established patterns we already are using in TDWG. This would have the added benefit of not confusing anybody if we suddenly discover that Humboldt was an evil space alien or something and decide we don’t want to name the extension after him anymore. Yes, I know that sounds weird, but Audubon Core is rebranding as Audiovisual Core and fortunately we can still use “ac:” without confusing anybody. This solution would also dodge that potential future problem. I haven’t checked to see if “eco” or “inv” are already being used by any well-known vocabularies, but I’ll do that if this idea gets any traction. Thoughts? -- Steven J.

Hi all, LOV is back up again: https://lov.linkeddata.es/ I checked the vocabs https://lov.linkeddata.es/dataset/lov/vocabs for “eco”, “env”, and “ecoenv” and did not see any usage. However, I also checked dwc and ac and they don’t come up either (not sure why, I think I submitted them long ago). So that doesn’t mean for sure that they aren’t being used. Steve -- Steven J.

Darwin Core, for example, also contains ecological data, and "ecology" and "ecological" have all sorts of meanings even in English, and the meanings are even more diverse when one starts to look at other languages (e.g. "öko", the German-language equivalent to "eco" refers to organic food). Of source, "eco" is still a clearer descriptor of a type of information content than "Darwin", which in addition to being a surname is a surname associated with evolutionary more than ecological phenomena. Anyway, either "eco" or "ecoinv" feel appropriate to me, and thinking laterally from the name "Humboldt" was a great idea.

Hi team, Hope you are all good! We have been having some great discussions lately and hopefully we will have another good one tomorrow. Peter Desmet has contacted us (thanks Steve for making the link!). He has been coordinating the development of the Camera Trap Data Package (Camtrap DP) and would like to discuss with us some terms that overlap with their use case. This relates a lot to the mapping exercise we did with the Wildlife Insights data (see slide 2 here <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/18n83tttDvWDLI5UM30LIsfqrbpH5nbyrwIK…> to find the feedback we received). Peter will join us tomorrow to review some terms (see in agenda below) and hopefully discuss the transition from https://tdwg.github.io/hc/terms/<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftdwg.gith…> to the new TDWG design, see e.g. https://dwc.tdwg.org/<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdwc.tdwg.…> If it is ok with you, we can push the discussion regarding the addition of new terms (see slide 8 and 9 here<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/18n83tttDvWDLI5UM30LIsfqrbpH5nbyrwIK…>) for the following week. Proposed agenda for this week's meeting: * Brief into to Camtrap DP (Peter Desmet) * Discuss Camtrap DP that may overlap with HE: * samplingPerformedBy ---> Would this apply to the person who setup the camera (but didn't take the actual photos)? * Geospatial Scope & Habitat ---> Geospatial scope is recorded in Camtrap DP, but as a geojson object. It does not specify the totalAreaSampledInSquareKilometer, siteCount, reportedWeather, etc. * verbatimSiteNames ---> location name is recorded, but there is no property listing all verbatimSiteNames . * habitat can be recorded, but there is no Camtrap DP property for the habitatScope. * eventDuration + eventDurationUnit ---> Temporal scope as well as deployment duration is recorded in Camtrap DP, but as a start-end date(time). * targetTaxonomicScope ---> Taxonomic scope in Camtrap DP records the observed species, not the target/excluded species, but see #41<https://github.com/tdwg/camtrap-dp/issues/41#issuecomment-1358149379> (comment) * targetLifestageScope, targetDegreeOfEstablishmentScope, targetGrowthFormScope are not recorded. * isAbundanceReported ---> Abundance is often reported, but not the fact whether or not that is the case (isAbundanceReported) * Methodology + Completeness & Effort ---> to be discussed * Transition from https://tdwg.github.io/hc/terms/<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftdwg.gith…> to the new TDWG design, see e.g. https://dwc.tdwg.org/<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdwc.tdwg.…> (Peter Desmet) * If time allows, review taxonomic scope related terms (see slide 8 and 9 here<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/18n83tttDvWDLI5UM30LIsfqrbpH5nbyrwIK…>) See you soon!

eventType
by Tim Robertson 30 Jan '23

30 Jan '23

Hi all, I hope you are all well. I’d like to draw your attention to the proposal to add eventType to Darwin Core [1]. 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. 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. 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. This might be of use for those creating test datasets to showcase Humboldt as well. Thanks, Tim [1] https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/408 [2] https://www.gbif.org/event/33MQ8ZI9xuC98AekewiMr8/gbif-community-webinar-di… [3] http://lists.tdwg.org/pipermail/tdwg-content/2021-December/003811.html [4] https://ipt.gbif.org/
