Hi Yani,

Since North America has switched to Daylight Savings Time, but Europe hasn’t and I’m not sure about the southern hemisphere changeover, can you confirm the meeting time? My calendar is showing the same time as always for me (7 AM Central U.S. Time). But since the time has only changed for us, I’m unclear about what will show up on other calendars. I believe that the time on the calendar invitation corresponds to 12:00 UTC.

Steve

Hi all,

In preparation for our meeting this week. I will kindly ask you to review the definition of the new term sumQuantities which allows the users to undertand if the dwc:organismQuantity should be summed or not to get final species counts (see below).

Also, we started the Implementation Experience Report<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2F1RFdSHoyzWCQk9qO6uup4xQjWOMzPyBb-A0mcjj98hbk%2Fedit%23&data=05%7C01%7Csteve.baskauf%40vanderbilt.edu%7Cec097113fba2431c9f9608db23d29106%7Cba5a7f39e3be4ab3b45067fa80faecad%7C0%7C0%7C638143159519832293%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=gVuIKY1sA7tDhIkY5NfyzOcIA9rW0BBSUGP2dhXIUno%3D&reserved=0>, based on the Audubon example shared by Steve. Please start completing the sections with your experience or thoughts.

Thank you and see you on Wednesday!

sumQuantities  Please suggest changes for current definition/comments below!
1.       Definition: The total detected quantity for a Taxon in an Event is the sum of all dwc:organismQuantity for the Taxon in the Event.

2.       Comments: Recommended values are True and False. If True, the total detected quantity of organisms for a Taxon in an Event is the sum of all dwc:organismQuantity for the Taxon in the Event and dwc:organismQuantity can be added to get the total detected quantity of organisms in an Event. If false, the total detected quantity of organisms for a Taxon in an Event is the dwc:organismQuantity of the least specific category listed for the Taxon in the Event and dwc:organismQuantity can not be added to get the total detected quantity of organisms in an Event.
3.       Examples: "`true`, `false`"
For more context, see Humbold case study<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2F1eGD69E-KzqdOcjh637iPrp1gv_J55CM2VPAjD1PSu_w%2Fedit%23&data=05%7C01%7Csteve.baskauf%40vanderbilt.edu%7Cec097113fba2431c9f9608db23d29106%7Cba5a7f39e3be4ab3b45067fa80faecad%7C0%7C0%7C638143159519832293%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=orA%2B%2BOW76rt%2BjEJv14LtpLLWACQJxDD0twdLq0e0fFY%3D&reserved=0>. Based on the example tables that John created I simplified below for easy interpretation of this term (PLEASE JOHN CORRECT IF ANYTHING IS WRONG):


  *   ebird case where organismQuantity (for ebird_target_1 = species level) is the sum of organismQuantity for that specific taxonomic level (only 2 organisms at the species level were detected not including the subspecies). Then, sumQuantities =TRUE because to get the total number of organisms detected in the Event without a taxon level distinction (15), the organismQuantity CAN be added (2+13=15). IF there had been a target "Aves" with count 15 (ebird_target_0), the total number of organisms detected would have been 30 (15 Aves unidentified to species and 2+13 Aves identified to species.

  *   obis case where organismQuantity (for bw_target_3 = Electrona antarctica without lifestage distinction) is already the sum of organismQuantity for the more specific targets (lava and postmeta, 15=13 +2). Then, sumQuantities = FALSE because to get the total number of organisms detected in the Event without a lifestage distinction (15), the organismQuantity CANNOT be added (15+2+13=30). IF the Electrona antarctica count without any lifeStage distinction (bw_target_3) had been 17, that means that there were 17 total E. antarctica and 2 of them were not larvae or postmetas.
