That is great, but the 30-day review ends on the 23rd so there is still a little time for further public commentary.

It seems that the qualifier issues was addressed so this should just happen.

Dear all,

I am following up with the proposal for sampling event terms that have been discussed earlier in this forum in a few threads [1,2,3]. Below is the final proposal for five new terms as it stands ready to be presented to the Executive Committee for ratification after taking into account the commentaries to date. As this summary consists of no semantic changes over what has been discussed already, the proposal should be ready for presentation on 23 Jan 2015, barring any expressed objections to the current proposal. 


Term Name: parentEventID
Label: Parent Event ID
Definition: An identifier for the broader Event that groups this and potentially other Events.
Comment: May be a globally unique identifier or an identifier specific to the data set.
Example: “A1” as parentEventID to identify the main Whittaker Plot in nested samples, each with its own eventID (e.g., “A1:1”, “A1:2”). For discussion see

Term Name: sampleSizeValue
Label: Sample Size Value
Definition: A numeric value for a measurement of the size (time duration, length, area, or volume) of a sample in a sampling event.
Comment: A sampleSizeValue must have a corresponding sampleSizeUnit. Example: “5" for sampleSizeValue with "metre” for sampleSizeUnit. For discussion see

Term Name: sampleSizeUnit
Label: Sample Size Unit
Definition: The unit of measurement of the size (time duration, length, area, or volume) of a sample in a sampling event.
Comment: A sampleSizeUnit must have a corresponding sampleSizeValue, e.g., “5" for sampleSizeValue with "metre” for sampleSizeUnit. Examples: “minute”, “hour”, “day, “metre”, “square metre”, “cubic metre”. Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as the Ontology of Units of Measure http://www.wurvoc.org/vocabularies/om-1.8/ of SI units, derived units, or other non-SI units accepted for use within the SI (e.g., minute, hour, day, litre).

Term Name: organismQuantity
Label: Organism Quantity
Definition: A number or enumeration value for the quantity of organisms.
Comment: An organismQuantity must have a corresponding organismQuantityType, e.g., “27” for organismQuantity with “individuals” for organismQuantityType; “12.5” for organismQuantity with “%biomass” for organismQuantityType; “r” for organismQuantity with “BraunBlanquetScale” for organismQuantityType.
