## 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/2023-07-07>).
This document includes terms in four namespaces that contain recommended terms: `dwc:`, `dwciri:`, `dc:`, and `dcterms:`. However, some terms in these namespaces are deprecated or superseded and should no longer be used. Deprecation or supersession 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.

<td>Notes</td>
<td>The full scientific name, with authorship and date information if known, of the accepted (botanical) or valid (zoological) name in cases where the provided dwc:scientificName is considered by the reference indicated in the dwc:accordingTo property, or of the content provider, to be a synonym or misapplied name. When applied to a dwc:Organism or dwc:Occurrence, this term should be used in cases where a content provider regards the provided dwc:scientificName to be inconsistent with the taxonomic perspective of the content provider. For example, there are many discrepancies within specimen collections and observation datasets between the recorded name (e.g., the most recent identification from an expert who examined a specimen, or a field identification for an observed dwc:Organism), and the name asserted by the content provider to be taxonomically accepted.</td>

<td>The ratio of the area of the dwc:footprintWKT to the area of the true (original, or most specific) spatial representation of the dcterms:Location. Legal values are 0, greater than or equal to 1, or undefined. A value of 1 is an exact match or 100% overlap. A value of 0 should be used if the given dwc:footprintWKT does not completely contain the original representation. The dwc:footprintSpatialFit is undefined (and should be left empty) if the original representation is any geometry without area (e.g., a point or polyline) and without uncertainty and the given georeference is not that same geometry (without uncertainty). If both the original and the given georeference are the same point, the dwc:footprintSpatialFit is 1.</td>

<td>This term provides context to the dwc:scientificName.

When not provided, in Taxon Core data sets the dwc:nameAccordingTo can be taken to be the data set. In this case the data set mostly provides sufficient context to infer the delimitation of the taxon and its relationship with other taxa. In Occurrence Core data sets, when not provided, dwc:nameAccordingTo can be an underlying taxonomy of the data set, e.g. Plants of the World Online (<a href="http://powo.science.kew.org/">http://powo.science.kew.org/</a>) for vascular plant records in iNaturalist (in which case it should be provided), or, which is the case for most dwc:PreservedSpecimen data sets, the dwc:Identification, in which case there is no further context.</td>

Legal values are 0, greater than or equal to 1, or undefined. A value of 1 is an exact match or 100% overlap. A value of 0 should be used if the given point-radius does not completely contain the original representation. The dwc:pointRadiusSpatialFit is undefined (and should be left empty) if the original representation is any geometry without area (e.g., a point or polyline) and without uncertainty and the given georeference is not that same geometry (without uncertainty). If both the original and the given georeference are the same point, the dwc:pointRadiusSpatialFit is 1.</td>

<td>Notes</td>
<td>This term should not contain identification qualifications, which should instead be supplied in the IdentificationQualifier term. When applied to an Organism or Occurrence, this term should be used to represent the scientific name that was applied to the associated Organism in accordance with the Taxon to which it was or is currently identified. Names should be compliant to the most recent nomenclatural code. For example, names of hybrids for algae, fungi and plants should follow the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Schenzhen Code Articles H.1, H.2 and H.3). Thus, use the multiplication sign <code>×</code> (Unicode <code>U+00D7</code>, HTML <code>&times;</code>) to identify a hybrid, not <code>x</code> or <code>X</code>, if possible.</td>
