Notes

[iDigBioBot]

Comment by Arthur Chapman (@ArthurChapman) migrated from spreadsheet: Wording should be "cultivated or captive" (i.e. Zoo) and these should be flagged as such a (warning) and are not necessarily an error - depends on use.

Comment by John Wieczorek (@tucotuco) migrated from spreadsheet: All of this might change as a result of the work of the group interested in proposing Darwin Core changes to deal separately with invasivity.

Comment by Arthur Chapman (@ArthurChapman) migrated from spreadsheet: NEEDS FURTHER DISCUSSION - TO BE DISCUSSED AT MELBOURNE IAS AND TDWG 2017

[iDigBioBot]

Comment by Arthur Chapman (@ArthurChapman) migrated from spreadsheet: The way this is interpreted by the Invasive Species people etc. - it refers to the Taxon and not the specimen. You can say that a specimen occurence is not natural (i.e. planted) but this is not how it is usually used

[iDigBioBot]

Comment by Arthur Chapman (@ArthurChapman) migrated from spreadsheet: Supplemental - not Core

[iDigBioBot]

Comment by Lee Belbin (@Tasilee) migrated from spreadsheet: This is an important status for evaluating natural-non-natural

[iDigBioBot]

Comment by Arthur Chapman (@ArthurChapman) migrated from spreadsheet: But generally, that cannot be determined from the "one" specimen or observation. Can often only be determined through external information at the taxon level

[Tasilee]

As per meeting 21st March, we will change the NOTIFICATIONs to ISSUEs

[Tasilee]

After zoom meeting, changed

POTENTIAL_ISSUE if dwc:establishmentMeans is not EMPTY; otherwise NO_ISSUE

to

POTENTIAL_ISSUE if dwc:establishmentMeans is not EMPTY; otherwise NOT_ISSUE

[Tasilee]

Splitting bdqffdq:Information Elements into "Information Elements ActedUpon" and "Information Elements Consulted".

Also changed "Field" to "TestField", "Output Type" to "TestType" and updated "Specification Last Updated"

From 1.5 About the tests, their use and specifications (Informative) (Lee)

1. Value is the returned result for the test, i.e. numeric for measures, a controlled vocabulary (consisting of exactly COMPLIANT or NOT_COMPLIANT) for validations or Issues (NOT_ISSUE, POSSIBLE_ISSUE, ISSUE), either a numeric value or a controlled vocabulary (consisting of exactly COMPLETE or NOT_COMPLETE for Measures, and a data structure (e.g., a list of key value pairs) for proposed changes for Amendments.

Expected Response in this issue:

• uses POTENTIAL_ISSUE, but the text in standards document is POSSIBLE_ISSUE

[ArthurChapman]

Thanks @ymgan POTENTIAL_ISSUE is correct (see Vocabulary Document at https://github.com/tdwg/bdq/issues/152 Document needs fixing

NOTEMPTY is the correct phrasing to go with the current definition of the term "Statement about whether a dwc:Organism has been introduced to a given place and time through the direct or indirect activity of modern humans." That is, the means by which the organism was established.

If there is a value in this term, it points to there being a potential issue for some uses of the data.
