Subject: Environmentally related information
I was wondering whether it has been attempted/it is feasible to use the
standards of observations and measurements (
http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/om) to describe sampling procedure
and environmental context of a species instead of extending DwC with terms?
Any hint is very much appreciated.
Best regards
Annett
Dear all,
This message is to open public commentary on a request for a new term,
typifiedName, submitted by Markus Döring to the Darwin Core issue
tracker at https://code.google.com/p/darwincore/issues/detail?id=197.
The justification given for inclusion of the term is:
"Clear separation of the type status and the typified scientific name
that is typified by a type specimen, the subject. Looking at how
dwc:typeStatus has been used in all of GBIFs specimen data one can see
there is the need to express this, but it should better be handled
with a term on its own and leave typeStatus for the status of the type
only. The term name itself is also used by ABCD:
http://wiki.tdwg.org/twiki/bin/view/ABCD/AbcdConcept0603."
The proposal is as follows:
Definition:
The scientific name that is based on the type specimen.
Comment:
It is recommended to also indicate the typeStatus of the specimen.
