Very nice Pete. A few comments: - the uri burner link didn't work first off (it seemed to strip off one of the / after the http:// ?? - I entered it manually, then it worked) - why is there a capital B in your url (I'm sure it doesn't matter, just curious) ? - should the rdf:about resource URI be the same as the dc:identifier resource? or is this a document "about"/annotating the other object that has URI http://lod.geospecies.org/observations/a3c39dad-6756-4129-9a61-fbd32883d369.... ? probably my misunderstanding. - I like how you have done the hasPart and isPartOf thing to aggregate the components - is this a standard way to do things? I hadn't seen it before - should the dwc namespace be http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/#, rather than http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/index.htm# ? - I see you have linked the http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/index.htm#nameAccordingToID<http://linkeddata.uriburner.com/about/html/http/rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/index.htm%01nameAccordingToID> to a taxon concept. I think the idea is to link it to a literature reference, where the taxon was circumscribed. but for some people this may be the same thing??? - it might be better to have your "has close match" links in the dwc:Taxon, that links to the geospecies object, and other objects such as IT IS concepts? sorry to be pedantic, but it is probably more for my benefit, than yours - ie to help me understand how I should do such a thing myself. Looks really good though.
