v0.10, released 28 March 2019

critical changes

The assignment of user-defined and standardised measurement values and trait and taxon assignments has been updated, to match labelling practice in DwC and provide a more intuitive content for those fields. Accordingly

  • the v0.9.1 terms scientificName, traitName, traitValue, and traitUnit have been renamed into verbatimScientificName, verbatimTraitName, verbatimTraitValue, and verbatimTraitUnit with new identifiers.
  • the terms scientificNameStd, traitNameStd, traitValueStd, and traitUnitStd have been renamed into scientificName, traitName, traitValue, and traitUnit and now form the default suggested content for trait data complying with the ETS. Definitions have been harmonized. The original *Std identifiers now resolve to these new terms.

major changes

  • further recommended metadata terms have been added, based on Dublin Core Metadata Initiative: rights, datasetDefinition, issued, and conformsTo

minor changes

  • the identifier field for Dublin Core terms now provides an own Identifier on GFBio terminology service, while the Dublin Core identifier is given in the 'Refines' field.
