[tdwg-content] Darwin Core Proposal - sampling event terms

[John Wieczorek]

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
Identifier: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/parentEventID
Namespace: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms
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
http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/dwc:parentEventID.

Term Name: sampleSizeValue
Identifier: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/sampleSizeValue
Namespace: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms
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
http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/dwc:sampleSizeUnit.

Term Name: sampleSizeUnit
Identifier: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/sampleSizeUnit
Namespace: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms
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). For discussion see
http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/dwc:sampleSizeUnit.

Term Name: organismQuantity
Identifier: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/organismQuantity
Namespace: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms
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. For discussion see
