Thank, Yani.

I've created new issues for the 4 value-unit terms and closed the 2 issues for the originally proposed terms (GH issue links are in the ALA doc). I've updated the names and comments for eventDurationValue, protocolDescriptions, and compilationTypes.

Cheers,

Kate

Hi all, 

Below you can find the summary of the meeting:

- We decided to remove the mention of BCO for inventoryTypes

- We decided to remove geospatialScopeAreaInSquareKilometers and totalAreaSampledInSquareKilometers and replace them with:

• geospatialScopeAreaValue 
• Geospatial Scope Area Value
• The numeric value for the total area of the geospatial scope of the dwc:Event.
• Geospatial scope refers to the dwc:Event location reported using the terms organized in Darwin Core under dcterms:Location. This area is always greater than or equal to the totalAreaSampledValue. An eco:geospatialScopeAreaValue must have a corresponding eco:geospatialScopeAreaUnit.
• geospatialScopeAreaUnit
• Geospatial Scope Area Unit
• The units associated with eco:geospatialScopeAreaValue
•  Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary.
• totalAreaSampledValue
• Total Area Sampled Value
• The numeric value for the total area surveyed during the dwc:Event.
• This area is always less than or equal to the eco:geospatialScopeAreaValue. An eco:totalAreaSampledValue must have a corresponding eco:totalAreaSampledUnit.
• totalAreaSampledUnit
• Total Area Sampled Unit
• The units associated with eco:totalAreaSampledValue
• Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary.

- For consistency, we decided to switch eventDuration for eventDurationValue (comments in eventDurationUnit should also change)

- Regarding plurals, we decided to switch to protocolDescriptions and compilationTypes

Updated terms and definitions can be found here (including these 4 proposed terms): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AbUUKDkgilbtHu9Dh_5V2dnOeQNbKBcRo4d7VEDyqOg/edit#gid=673949815

Humboldt extension data templates are here (including SOME DwC terms): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Opt-3mszACyEZDiU0yCUOnWSnRyLiK34Rxu0GBvwn-g/edit#gid=615309453

Hope to see you next week!

all the best,

Yanina

Dear All.

I am interested in controlled vocabularies for inventoryTypes, protocols, etc.

Hi team,

Tomorrow we are meeting at 12:00 UTC. Search for your local time here or google it because I am quite bad at this!

We need to finish revising ALA's feedback (starting from Plural Terms on page 10). In order to properly respond to one of their comments, please revise this document (column F) and make sure that the only terms that need to reflect INTENT are denoted as 'design' in column F.

I forgot to send a summary from last week but here it goes:

- Kate is moving all ALA comments to GitHub issues

- Steve will create an issue about the need to remove BCO as mandatory controlled vocabulary for eco:inventoryTypes

- Yani will create humboldt terms templates

- Ani will get iDiv people to provide feedback 

For the future, is anybody interested in starting a new TDWG Task Group that looks into organizing a controlled vocabulary for inventoryTypes, protocols, etc?

All the best! See you soon

Yani
