Hi Martin,

 

The issue seems to be due to an error in the XSD files where the term names are stated incorrectly – sampleValueSize vs sampleSizeValue, sampleValueUnit vs sampleSizeUnit:

 

<xs:element name="sampleValueSize" type="xs:string" substitutionGroup="dwc:anyEventTerm"/>

<xs:element name="sampleValueUnit" type="xs:string" substitutionGroup="dwc:anyEventTerm"/>

 

<xs:element ref="dwc:sampleSizeValue" minOccurs="0"/>

<xs:element ref="dwc:sampleSizeUnit" minOccurs="0"/>

 

I’m CCing John who I assume has access to fix the files.

 

Best regards,

Éamonn
