Notes

[iDigBioBot]

Comment by Paula Zermoglio (@pzermoglio) migrated from spreadsheet: Idem, order matters, useful AFTER interpretation of verbatim if no decimalLat and decimaLong were provided.

In the light of recent comments, changed the Expected Response to

INTERNAL_PREREQUISITES_NOT_MET if dwc:decimalLatitude is EMPTY or the value is not interpretable as a number; COMPLIANT if the value of dwc:decimalLatitude is between -90 and 90 degrees, inclusive; otherwise NOT_COMPLIANT

[ArthurChapman]

I believe the word "degrees" should be removed from - the value is a number between -90 and 90, not "-90 and 90 degrees"

Removed the word "degrees" from COMPLIANT
