## 1 Introduction (Informative)
This document contains terms that are part of the most recent version of the Darwin Core vocabulary (http://rs.tdwg.org/version/dwc/2020-08-12).
This document includes terms in four namespaces that contain recommended terms: `dwc:`, `dwciri:`, `dc:`, and `dcterms:`. However, some terms in these namespaces are deprecated and should no longer be used. Deprecation is noted in the term metadata. Namespaces that contain only deprecated terms are not included in this document, but metadata about those terms can be retrieved by dereferencing their IRIs.
For a simplified list that contains only the currently recommended terms, see the [Darwin Core Quick Reference Guide](../terms/).
### 1.1 Status of the content of this document
Sections 1 and 3 are non-normative.
Section 2 is normative.
In Section 4, the values of the `Term IRI` and `Definition` are normative. The values of `Term Name` are non-normative, although one can expect that the namespace abbreviation prefix is one commonly used for the term namespace. `Label` and the values of all other properties (such as `Examples` and `Notes`) are non-normative.
### 1.2 RFC 2119 key words
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC 2119](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2119).
### 1.3 Namespace abbreviations
The following namespace abbreviations are used in this document:
| abbreviation | IRI |
| --- | --- |
| dwc: | http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/ |
| dwciri: | http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/iri/ |
| dc: | http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/ |
| dcterms: | http://purl.org/dc/terms/ |
## 2 Use of Terms
Due to the requirements of [Section 1.4.3 of the Darwin Core RDF Guide](../rdf/#143-use-of-darwin-core-terms-in-rdf-normative), terms in the `dwciri:` namespace MUST be used with IRI values. Terms in the `dwc:` and `dc:` namespaces are generally expected to have string literal values. Values for terms in the `dcterms:` namespace will depend on the details of the term. See [Section 3 of the Darwin Core RDF Guide](../rdf/#3-term-reference-normative) for details.

A value of 0 should be used if the given point-radius does not completely contain the original representation. The pointRadiusSpatialFit is undefined (and should be left blank) if the original representation is a point without uncertainty and the given georeference is not that same point (without uncertainty). If both the original and the given georeference are the same point, the pointRadiusSpatialFit is 1.</td>
