[tdwg-humboldt] Events

Dear All

Based on our conversation today in which we discussed events, Paula suggested we reread Guralnick et al 2017.

I have been rereading it and I agree. Paper attached.

Given the various interpretations of "event", I am wondering if we should find other terminology because event can be used at multiple scales and is usually used as a way to categorize a spatiotemporal happening as a spatiotemporal point rathering that capturing the spatiotemporal extent & starting and ending points.

Looking forward to our conversations next week,

Rob
