With only comments from Bob & Arthur (thanks!), the latest version of observation definitions is as follows:
"An observation characterizes the evidence for the presence or absence of an organism or set of organisms through a data collection event at a location. Observations are not necessarily independent and could be linked via characteristics such as time, place, protocol, and co-occurring organisms."
