DWC Occurrence Exporter More Terms (Other)

Open tmcelrath opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Feature or enhancement

DWC Export should include the following terms:

  • [ ] datasetID (mint or use GBIF DOI?) - [ ] taxonID (TaxonWorks internal ID?, other? only if custom identifier provided?)
  • [ ] taxonomicStatus (pull from nomenclature?)
  • [ ] countryCode (add to Geographic Areas then export?) - [ ] continent (dataAttribute? add to geographic areas if enough demand?, pretty sure AntWeb people will want)

I don't expect to see these get added very. Some notes for when we do consider them.

  • We don't have a datasetID concept, this is blocked by metadata profile modelling.
  • taxonID - "This term is deprecated and should no longer be used."
  • taxonomicStatus - By definition I think we use valid names, but I have to check, would seem funny to export invalid names?
  • countryCode - We have this, but the pre-indexing we do doesn't cover it. So it's possible, but largely redundant, especially if Georeference is present.
  • continent - Seems this is inferable at the aggregator level? Ant folks want biogeo regions, not contient IIRC.

Continent = agreed - nvm taxonID = agreed - nvm countryCode = redundancy is never a bad thing IMO - I think we should calc and export taxonomicStatus = not necessarily
