## Issue templates
## Submitting issues
### New term
If you wish to submit concrete recommendations for the Darwin Core Standard that can be assessed, assigned, tracked, and archived, the Issue Tracking System on this site is the mechanism for managing these recommendations.
Copy and paste this template into your [new issue](https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/new) if you want to create a term that does not exist yet ([example]()).
For any new issue, open the [Issues](http://code.google.com/p/darwincore/issues/list) page (accessible from this page by clicking on the `Issues` tab above. It may be a good idea to review the list of issues to see if the issue you want to report has already been reported. If it has, you may want to add comments to that existing issue. To do so, click on the row containing the issue to open it's detailed view, then click in the `Add a comment and make changes` text box and enter your comments. When you are finished, click on the `Save changes` button on the bottom of the page.
If you do not find an existing issue for what you want to report, click in the [New Issue](http://code.google.com/p/darwincore/issues/entry) link on the first row of controls on the [Issues](http://code.google.com/p/darwincore/issues/list) page. Decide which of the basic types of issues (see the list and specific instructions for these below) best matches the one you want to report and select the appropriate template in the `Template` selection box. A form appropriate to your choice will appear. Fill in the form as completely and clearly as possible following the guidelines given within the template itself. When you have finished filling in the form, click on the `Submit issue` button at the bottom of the page.
There are four types of issues that should be reported using this system. Descriptions of these categories of issues are given below and are directly accessible from the following links:
### Documentation error report
This type of issue is to report an error in the documentation (web pages) for the Darwin Core Standard. Select the `Documentation Error` template and follow the guidelines provided in the `Description` text box in the Issue Report Form.
The information requested in this type of issue includes:
Submitter, URL, Error description, Recommended remedy.
Template
```
This type of issue is to report an error in the Darwin Core Standard
documentation. Add a label for the document on which the error occurs.
These can be selected in the Labels section of the issue tracker. In
addition, please include the URL to the document in your comment if
applicable. Describe the error and its remedy as clearly as possible, and
please identify yourself as the submitter if you want attribution for the
error report.
## New term
Please do not contribute more than one error report per issue. It will help
us to manage and track changes if distinct problems are identified in their
own issues.
* Submitter:
* Proponents (at least two independent parties who need this term):
* Justification (why is this term necessary?):

### Term change recommendation
### Change term
This type of issue is to make a recommendation for a change to a Darwin
Core term definition. Select the `Term Definition` template and follow the guidelines provided in the `Description` text box in the Issue Report Form.

<h1>Change policy</h1>
</div>
<h2>1. Introduction</h2>
<p>This document and the policies contained herein are modeled on the <em>Dublin Core Metadata Initiative Namespace Policy</em> [<a href="http://dublincore.org/documents/2007/07/02/dcmi-namespace/">DCMINAMESPACEPOLICY</a>]. All terms in the Darwin Core must be identified with a unique Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). For convenience, the term URIs are grouped into collections known as <em>Darwin Core namespaces</em>. This document describes the policies associated with Darwin Core namespaces and how term URIs are allocated by the <em>Darwin Core Task Group</em> [<a href="http://www.tdwg.org/activities/darwincore/">DWC-TASK</a>].</p>
<h2>2. Namespace URIs</h2>
<p>The Darwin Core namespace URI for the collection of all Darwin Core properties, classes, and encoding schemes is:</p>
<pre class="example">http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/</pre>
<p>The term identifier for the current (recommended) version of a term is a URI based on the namespace and the term name without version information. Some example Darwin Core term identifiers follow:</p>
<pre class="example">http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/scientificName</pre>
<p>is the Darwin Core term identifier for the <em>scientificName</em> property, while</p>
<pre class="example">http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/MachineObservation</pre>
<p>is the Darwin Core term identifier for the <em>MachineObservation</em> class.</p>
<p>All Darwin Core identifiers will dereference to a Darwin Core term
declaration for the identified term.</p>
<h2>3. Term change policy</h2>
<p>Changes to Darwin Core recommendations or term declarations will occur from time to time for a variety of reasons. Changes have varying implications for the decision making process and for versioning Darwin Core documents and term URIs. The types of changes and appropriate processes are identified and explained in the following sections.</p>
<p><strong>Reporting issues</strong>: In all cases the proposed change should be reported to the <em>Technical Architecture Group</em> [<a href="mailto:tdwg-tag@lists.tdwg.org">TDWG-TAG</a>] and the outcome of the proposal should be announced on the <em>Darwin Core mailing list</em> [<a href="http://lists.tdwg.org/mailman/listinfo/tdwg-content">TDWG-CONTENT</a>].</p>
<p><strong>Decisions</strong>: In cases where an Executive decision is required,the <em>Technical Architecture Group</em> will conduct a minimum 30-day public comment period on the <em>Darwin Core mailing list</em> [<a href="http://lists.tdwg.org/mailman/listinfo/tdwg-content">TDWG-CONTENT</a>], during which the proposal can be refined based on discussion in an effort to reach consensus (no dissenting opinion expressed publicly on the mailing list for 30 days from the most recent iteration). If a consensus is reached, the proposal will be presented by the <em>Technical Architecture Group</em> to the Executive Committee for a decision [<a href="terms/decisions.html">DECISIONS</a>] within 30 days.</p>
<p><strong>Versions</strong>: In cases where a decision requires a version change, the attributes <em>Status</em> (recommended, superseded, or deprecated), <em>Date Issued</em>, <em>Date Modified</em>, <em>Decision</em>, <em>Version</em>, <em>Replaces</em>, and <em>Is Replaced By</em> will be modified in the affected terms as appropriate.</p>
<h3>3.1 Minor editorial errata</h3>
<p>An error in spelling, punctuation, grammar, or other clerical mistake
discovered in a Darwin Core recommendation or term declaration may be
corrected without a public comment period or Executive Decision. Minor
editorial changes of this type do not require a version change for the
affected term and/or documents.</p>
<h3>3.2 Substantive editorial errata</h3>
<p>A substantive error is one that compromises the usefulness or accuracy of systems based on Darwin Core. Those that are unequivocal (for example, an incorrect URI or reference) may be treated as minor editorial errata (Section 3.1).</p>
<p>Otherwise, the <em>Technical Architecture Group</em> will conduct a public comment period and seek an Executive decision to find a solution that minimizes adverse effects on existing applications. Changes of this nature require a version change for the affected term and/or documents.</p>
<h3>3.3 Semantic changes to Darwin Core terms</h3>
<p>Darwin Core terms may be changed based on public demand and consensus. A request to the <em>Technical Architecture Group</em> for a term change should consist of proposed values for the complete list of attributes given in the term definitions section of the <em>Darwin Core Terms Complete History</em> [<a href="terms/history.html">HISTORY</a>] along with a statement of justification for the change.</p>
<p>Term changes that are likely to have substantial functional impact on human understanding or machine processing will posted for public commentary and an Executive decision. Changes of this nature require a version change for the affected term and/or documents.</p>
<h3>3.4 Addition of Darwin Core terms</h3>
<p>New terms may be added to the Darwin Core namespaces based on public demand and consensus. A request to the <em>Technical Architecture Group</em> [<a href="mailto:tdwg-tag@lists.tdwg.org">TDWG-TAG</a>] for a new term should consist of proposed values for the complete list of attributes given in the term definitions section of the <em>Darwin Core Terms Complete History</em> [<a href="terms/history.html">HISTORY</a>] along with a statement of justification for the new term, including an explanation of why no existing term will suffice.</p>
<p>New term proposals will be posted for public commentary and an Executive decision. Changes of this nature require a version change for the affected term and/or documents.</p>
<h2>4. Persistence policy</h2>
<p>TDWG recognizes that people and applications depend on the persistence of formal documents and machine processable schemas that have been made publicly available. In particular, the stability of Darwin Core term URIs and Darwin Core namespace URIs is critical to interoperability over time. Thus, the wide promulgation of this set of URIs dictates that they be maintained to support legacy applications that have adopted them.</p>

143 pointRadiusSpatialFit Point Radius Spatial Fit The ratio of the area of the point-radius (decimalLatitude, decimalLongitude, coordinateUncertaintyInMeters) to the area of the true (original, or most specific) spatial representation of the 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 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.

## Examples - RDFa
### Tagging content in HTML with Darwin Core terms
[RDFa](http://www.w3.org/TR/rdfa-syntax/) provides a mechanism for expressing
semantic markup within HTML documents using RDF constructs.
Resources:
* An [RDFa parser](http://www.siatec.net/rdfaparser/) is available to convert RDFa to RDF. Note that this parser seems to drop the rdf typeof property.
* A [simple standalone RDFa to RDF converter](http://code.google.com/p/darwincore/source/browse/trunk/examples/rdfa_content/rdfa2rdf.py) in python.
* The [W3C RDF validator](http://www.w3.org/RDF/Validator/) provides a convenient tool for quickly visualizing an RDF structure.
#### Example 1: Name without context
Indicating that a string within a document is semantically equivalent
to a scientific name as defined in the Darwin Core.
There is no additional information about the scientific name, only an indication that the character string represents a scientific name, and so parsers that are able to interpret RDFa are able to identify that value in the document, though no additional context is explicitly stated.
* [Source](http://darwincore.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/examples/rdfa_content/sciname_1.html)
* [RDF](http://www.siatec.net/rdfaparser/index.php?xml=http%3A%2F%2Fdarwincore.googlecode.com%2Fsvn%2Ftrunk%2Fexamples%2Frdfa_content%2Fsciname_1.html)

<p>This example shows how to tag a scientific name with RDFa markup so that a
parser can recognize that the string
<span property='dwc:scientificName' style='font-style: italic;'>Bufo marinus</span>
as a scientific name, and the string &quot;<span property='dwc:family'>Bufonidae</span>
is a family name, but there is no statement that the B. marinus is a
member of the family Bufonidae.</p>
</body>
</html>
```
#### Example 2: Name with simple context
This example wraps the scientific name and family within a named node, implying that the two are properties about the node rather than the whole document. This in turn infers that the scientific name is a member of the family, although this information is only contained in the human readable descriptions of the Darwin Core terms and can not be directly inferred from the RDF.

Model: Whole organism recorded (any combination of sound, image, video, field notes) in the wild and entered in a collection database.
Model: Whole organism captured, recorded (sound, image, video) along with measurements, released in the wild and entered in a collection database.
Model: Whole organism collected from captivity and put into a collection.
Model: Whole organism collected from the wild, but escaped from captivity, and put into a collection.
Model: Parasite of organism, parasite cataloged with specimen of organism.
Model: Parasite of organism, parasite cataloged separate from specimen (in the same or in a different collection).
Model: Record of organism, where specimen is now in another collection.
Model: Repeated instances of material sample for the same organism over time, then organism put into a collection.
Model: Repeated instances of material sample for the same captive organism over time, then organism put into a collection.
Model: Repeated instances of the same organism (with media, literature) captured over time.
Model: Multiple organisms collected in the wild together, put into a collection and cataloged as a lot.

TITLE: Darwin Core text guide
DESCRIPTION: Guidelines for implementing Darwin Core in Text files.
LAST_MODIFIED: 2015-01-14
## 1. Introduction
This document provides guidelines for formatting and sharing Darwin Core terms [[TERMS](../../terms/index.html)] in _fielded text_ formats, such as one or more comma separated value (CSV) files. Data conforming to the Simple Darwin Core [[SIMPLEDWC](../../simple_dwc.html)] (CSV format and having the first row include Darwin Core standard term names) can be shared in a single file, while a non-standard text file can be understood using an [[XML](http://www.w3.org/XML/)] metafile to describe its contents and formatting.
![Usage](images/usage.png)
More complex structure can be shared in multiple related files. The description of content and relationships between files can be achieved using the metafile. This guideline makes recommendations for the simple case of a _core_ file, upon which Darwin Core _records_ are based, and _extensions_ that are linked to records in that core file. Specifically, extension records have a _many-to-one_ relationship with records in the core file. For example, a core file might contain specimen records, with one specimen per row in the file, while an extension file contains one or more identifications for those specimens, with one identification per row in the extension file, and with an identifier to the specimen for each identification row. This example would allow many identifications to be associated with each specimen.
### 1.1 Simple example metafile content
A simple comma separated values (CSV) data file with the following content:
```
ID,Species,Count
123,"Cryptantha gypsophila Reveal & C.R. Broome",12
124,"Buxbaumia piperi",2
```
can be described with the following Darwin Core metafile:
```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<archive xmlns="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/text/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/text/ http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/text/tdwg_dwc_text.xsd">
<core rowType="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/xsd/simpledarwincore/SimpleDarwinRecord" ignoreHeaderLines="1">
<files>
<location>http://data.gbif.org/download/specimens.csv</location>
</files>
<field index="0" term="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/catalogNumber" />
<field index="1" term="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/scientificName" />
<field index="2" term="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/individualCount" />
<!-- A constant value has no index, but applies to all rows -->
<field term="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/datasetID" default="urn:lsid:tim.lsid.tdwg.org:collections:1"/>
</core>
</archive>
```
These same data could be understood without the metafile if the first row of the CSV file contained the term names:
```
type,institutionCode,collectionCode,catalogNumber,scientificName,individualCount,datasetID
PhysicalObject,ANSP,PH,123,"Cryptantha gypsophila Reveal & C.R. Broome",12,urn:lsid:tim.lsid.tdwg.org:collections:1
PhysicalObject,ANSP,PH,124,"Buxbaumia piperi",2,urn:lsid:tim.lsid.tdwg.org:collections:1
```
### 1.2 XML versus _fielded text_
Many resources exist on the web describing the advantages of Extensible Markup Language [[XML](http://www.w3.org/XML/)] over less structured content such as _fielded text_. The Darwin Core Text Guide (this document) is not meant to promote the use of _fielded text_ over XML for data exchange, but rather to provide recommendations for how to handle such data files when necessary.
Two scenarios that might benefit from the use of _fielded text_ are:
* The transfer of large numbers of Darwin Core records and related data from one database to another. Typically databases are very efficient at exporting and importing comma separated text files.
* The description of legacy data existing in a _fielded text_ format, such that it might be automatically understood and loaded into another system. It could be that this system would then serve the data in another format such as XML.
## 2. Metafile Content
The text metafile schema [[TEXTSCHEMA](tdwg_dwc_text.xsd)] provides technical details for the structure of a metafile by defining the elements and attributes required to describe the contents and relationships between text files. These elements and attributes, with descriptions and specifications for their use in a metafile, are described in the following table.
### 2.1 The `<archive>` element
The `<archive>` element is the container for the list of related files (one core and zero or more extensions). The `<archive>` element has just one attribute, `metadata`.
#### `metadata` attribute
Contains a qualified Uniform Resource Locator (URL) defining the location of a metadata description of the entire archive. The format of the metadata is not prescribed, but a standardized format such as Ecological Metadata Language (EML), Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC), or ISO 19115 family is recommended.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**: metadata.xml
#### `<core>` subelement
An `<archive>` must contain exactly one `<core>` element, representing the data entity (the actual file and its column header mappings to Darwin Core terms) upon which records are based.
If extensions are being used, each record in the core data must have a unique identifier. The field for this identifier must be specified in an explicit `<id>` field in order to associate extension records with the core record.
#### `<extension>` subelement
An `<archive>` may define zero or more `<extension>` elements, each representing an individual extension entity directly related to the core. In addition to the general file attributes described below, every extension entity must have an explicit `<coreId>` field to relate the extension record to a row in the core entity. The extension itself does not have to have a unique ID field and many rows can point to the same core record.
### 2.2 The `<core>` or `<extension>` element
#### `rowType` attribute
A Unified Resource Identifier (URI) for the term identifying the class of data represented by each row, for example, http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Occurrence for Occurrence records or http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Taxon for Taxon records. Additional classes may be referenced by URI and defined outside the Darwin Core specification. The row type is required. For convenience the URIs for classes defined by the Darwin Core are listed below:
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
<dt>Occurrence</dt><dd>http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Occurrence</dd>
<dt>Event</dt><dd>http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Event</dd>
<dt>Location</dt><dd>http://purl.org/dc/terms/Location</dd>
<dt>GeologicalContext</dt><dd>http://purl.org/dc/terms/GeologicalContext</dd>
<dt>Identification</dt><dd>http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Identification</dd>
<dt>Taxon</dt><dd>http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Taxon</dd>
<dt>ResourceRelationship</dt><dd>http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/ResourceRelationship</dd>
<dt>MeasurementOrFact</dt><dd>http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/MeasurementOrFact</dd>
</dl>
* **Required**: yes
#### `fieldsTerminatedBy` attribute
Specifies the delimiter between fields. Typical values might be `,` or `\t` for CSV or Tab files respectively.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**: `,`
#### `linesTerminatedBy` attribute
Specifies the row separator character.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**: `\n`
#### `fieldsEnclosedBy` attribute
Specifies the character used to enclose (mark the start and end of) each field. CSV files frequently use the double quote character (`"`), but the default is no enclosing character. Note that a comma separated value file that has commas within the content of any field must have an enclosing character.</td>
* **Required**: no
* **Default**: `"`
#### `encoding` attribute
Specifies the [character encoding](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_encoding) for the data file. The encoding is extremely important, but often ignored. The most frequently used encodings are:
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
<dt>UTF-8</dt><dd>8-bit Unicode Transformation Format.</dd>
<dt>UTF-16</dt><dd>16-bit Unicode Transformation Format.</dd>
<dt>ISO-8859-1</dt><dd>Commonly known as Latin-1 and a common default on systems configured for a single western European language.</dd>
<dt>Windows-1252</dt><dd>Commonly known as WinLatin and a common default of legacy versions of Microsoft Windows based operating systems.</dd>
</dl>
* **Required**: no
* **Default**: `UTF-8`
#### `ignoreHeaderLines` attribute
Specifies the number lines to ignore from the beginning of the file. This can be used to ignore files with column headings or preamble comments for example.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**: `0`
#### `dateFormat` attribute
When verbatim dates are consistent in format, this field can be used to indicate the format represented. It is recommended to use the date, dateTime and time for field formats wherever possible, but where verbatim dates are required, a format may be specified here. This should be considered a 'hint' for consumers. It is recommended that consumers support the minimum combinations of `DD` `MM` and `YYYY` with the separators `/` and `-`. Examples:
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
<dt>DDMMYYYY</dt><dd>For dates of the form 21121978</dd>
<dt>DD-MM-YYYY</dt><dd>For dates of the form 21-12-1978</dd>
<dt>MMDDYYYY</dt><dd>For dates of the form 12211978</dd>
<dt>MM-DD-YYYY</dt><dd>For dates of the form 12-21-1978</dd>
<dt>YYYYMMDD</dt><dd>For dates of the form 19781221</dd>
</dl>
#### `<files>` subelement
`<core>` or `<extension>` element must contain one `<files>` element to locate the data being described.
#### `<id>` subelement
If extensions are being used, the `<core>` must contain an <id> element that indicates the identifier for a record.
#### `<coreId>` subelement
If extensions are being used, the `<extension>` element must contain a `<coreId>` element that indicates the column in the extension file that contains the core record identifier (the matching `<id>` in the core file).
#### `<field>` subelement
A `<core>` or `<extension>` element must contain one or more <field> elements, each representing a 'column' in the row.
### 2.3 `<files>` element
The files element must contain one or more <location> elements, each defining where a file resides. Each core or extension entity can be composed from one or more files. If an entity has data in more than one file, use the `<location>` element multiple times, once for each file that makes up the entity.
#### `<location>` subelement
Specifies the location of the file being described, which may take either of the following forms:
* A web accessible URL such as `http://www.gbif.org/data/specimen.csv` or `ftp://ftp.gbif.org/tim/specimen.txt`.
* A filepath relative to the location of the metafile such as `specimen.txt`, `./specimen.txt`, `data/specimen.txt`.
### 2.4 The `<field>` element
The field element is used to specify the location and content of data within a file. There must be one field element for every term being shared for the entity, whether explicitly or through the use of a default value for all rows in the file.
#### `index` attribute
Specifies the position of the column in the row. The first column has an index of 0, the second column 1, etc. If no column index is specified, then the term and the default may be used to define a constant value for all rows.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**:
#### `term` attribute
A Unified Resource Identifier (URI) for the term represented by this field. For example, a field containing the scientific name would have term="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/scientificName". Terms outside of the Darwin Core specification may be used, such as those from the Dublin Core Metadata Initative, for example, dcterms:modified would be term="http://purl.org/dc/terms/modified".
* **Required**: yes
#### `default` attribute
Specifies value to use if one is not supplied for the field in a given row. If no index is supplied, the default can be used to define a constant for all rows for a field that is not in the data file.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**:
#### `vocabulary` attribute
A Unified Resource Identifier (URI) for a vocabulary that the source values for this field are based on. The URI ideally should resolve to some machine readable definition like SKOS, RDF or at least some simple text or html file often found for ISO or RFC standards. For example http://rs.gbif.org/vocabulary/gbif/nomenclatural_code.xml, http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt or http://www.iso.org/iso/list-en1-semic-3.txt.
* **Required**: no
* **Default**:
## 3. Implementation Guide
### 3.1 Extension example
The following example illustrates the use of extensions. In this example there are three files in the archive, all of which are located in the same directory as the metafile. The whales.txt file acts as a core file of Taxon records. The whales.txt file is extended by two other files, types.txt and distribution.txt. The types.txt file contains records of a type specified in an external definition at http://http://rs.gbif.org/terms/1.0/Types and consists of Dublin Core and Darwin Core terms, while the distribution.txt file contains records of a type specified at http://http://rs.gbif.org/terms/1.0/Distribution and consists of Darwin Core terms plus an additional term for threatStatus. Both extension files are related to the core file by the taxonNameID fields. Presumably, this archive contains information about whale species, type specimen records for those species, and lists of countries and the threat status for those species.

## 4. Database Example
### 4.1 MySQL
It is very easy to produce _fielded text_ using the `SELECT INTO` outfile command from MySQL. The encoding of the resulting file will depend on the server variables and collations used, and might need to be modified before the operation is done. Note that MySQL will export `NULL` values as \N by default. Use the `IFNULL()` function as shown in the following example to avoid this.
```SQL
SELECT
IFNULL(id, ''), IFNULL(scientific_name, ''), IFNULL(count,'')
INTO outfile '/tmp/dwc.txt'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
FROM
dwc;
```

<h1>Darwin Core</h1>
<p>A standard for sharing biodiversity data</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="content">
<div class="container">
<h2>1. Introduction</h2>
<p>The Darwin Core is body of standards. It includes a glossary of terms (in other contexts these might be called properties, elements, fields, columns, attributes, or concepts) intended to facilitate the sharing of information about biological diversity by providing reference definitions, examples, and commentaries. The Darwin Core is primarily based on taxa, their occurrence in nature as documented by observations, specimens, samples, and related information. Included are documents describing how these terms are managed, how the set of terms can be extended for new purposes, and how the terms can be used. The normative document for the terms [<a href="terms/dwc_normative.rdf">RDF-NORMATIVE</a>] is written in the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and is the definitive resource to understand the term definitions and their relationships to each other. The <em>Simple Darwin Core</em> [<a href="simple_dwc.html">SIMPLEDWC</a>] is a specification for one particular way to use the terms - to share data about taxa and their occurrences in a simply structured way - and is probably what is meant if someone suggests to "format your data according to the Darwin Core".</p>
<h2>2. Motivation</h2>
<p>The Darwin Core standard was originally conceived to facilitate the discovery, retrieval, and integration of information about modern biological specimens, their spatiotemporal occurrence, and their supporting evidence housed in collections (physical or digital). The Darwin Core today is broader in scope and more versatile. It is meant to provide a stable standard reference for sharing information on biological diversity. As a glossary of terms, the Darwin Core is meant to provide stable semantic definitions with the goal of being maximally reusable in a variety of contexts.</p>
<h2>3. Rationale</h2>
<p>The Darwin Core is based on the standards developed by the <em>Dublin Core Metadata Initiative</em> [<a href="http://dublincore.org/">DCMI</a>] and can be viewed as an extension of the Dublin Core for biodiversity information. The purpose of these terms is to facilitate data sharing by providing a well-defined standard core vocabulary in a flexible framework to minimize the barriers to adoption and to maximize reusability. The terms described in this standard are a part of a larger set of vocabularies and technical specifications under development [<a href="http://wiki.tdwg.org/twiki/bin/view/">TDWG-DEV</a>] and maintained by <em>Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG)</em> [<a href="http://www.tdwg.org/standards/">TDWG-STANDARDS</a>].</p>
<h2>4. Guiding principles</h2>
<p>Each term has a definition and commentaries that are meant to promote the consistent use of the terms across applications and disciplines. Evolving commentaries that discuss, refine, expand, or translate the definitions and examples are referred to through links in the <em>Comments</em> attribute of each term. This means of documentation allows the standard to adapt to new purposes without disrupting existing applications. There is meant to be a clear separation between the terms defined in this standard and the applications that make use of them. For example, though the data types and constraints are not provided in the term definitions, recommendations are made about how to restrict the values where appropriate.</p>
<h2>5. Content</h2>
<p>The standard consists of a vocabulary of terms (properties, elements, fields, concepts) [<a href="terms/index.html">TERMS</a>], the policy governing the maintenance of these terms [<a href="change_policy.html">NAMESPACEPOLICY</a>], the decisions that resulted in changes to terms [<a href="terms/decisions.html">DECISIONS</a>], the complete history of terms including detailed attributes [<a href="terms/history.html">HISTORY</a>], a <em>Generic Darwin Core XML schema</em> [<a href="guides/xml/tdwg_dwcterms.xsd">TERMSXMLSCHEMA</a>] from which other schemas can be constructed, a <em>Simple Darwin Core XML schema</em> [<a href="guides/xml/tdwg_dwc_simple.xsd">SIMPLEXMLSCHEMA</a>] as a complete schema ready for use, a schema to allow Darwin Core data transfer in text files [<a href="guides/text/tdwg_dwc_text.xsd">TEXTSCHEMA</a>], and associated reference schemas for the construction of more structured content. These pages also describe mappings between the current standard and pre-standard historical versions <a href="terms/old_versions.html">[VERSIONS]</a>, including mappings <a href="terms/mapping_abcd.html">[DWCTOABCD]</a> to concepts in the <em>Access to Biological Collections Data</em> standard <a href="http://www.tdwg.org/schemas/abcd/2.06">[ABCD]</a>.</p>
<h2>6. Extension</h2>
<p>Though the Darwin Core is insufficient for the needs of all biological disciplines, it can be adapted to serve new purposes. Darwin Core can be extended by adding new terms to share additional information. To do so you should be familiar with the recommendations and procedures defined in the <em>Darwin Core Namespace Policy</em> [<a href="change_policy.html">NAMESPACEPOLICY</a>]. Basically, before proposing a new term, consider the existing terms in this and other compatible standards to determine if the new concept can be accommodated by a simple revision of the description and comments for an existing term, without losing the existing meaning of that term.</p>
<h2>7. Participation</h2>
<p>To receive notification of activity or participate in discussions about Darwin Core, join the <em>tdwg-content</em> mailing list [<a href="http://lists.tdwg.org/mailman/listinfo/tdwg-content">TDWG-CONTENT</a>] and watch the <em>Darwin Core Project</em> [<a href= "https://github.com/tdwg/dwc">DWC-PROJECT</a>]. For discussion or commentary on the definition of recommended terms, consult the link inside the <em>Comment</em> section in the listing for the term in the <em>Quick Reference Guide</em> [<a href="terms/index.html">TERMS</a>] or search for the relevant content in the auxiliary <em>Darwin Core Documentation</em> [<a href= "http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/Darwin_Core">DWC-WIKI</a>].</p>
<p>To make a formal request for a change to or addition of a term to the Darwin Core, read and follow the recommendations in the <em>Darwin Core Namespace Policy</em> [<a href="change_policy.html">NAMESPACEPOLICY</a>]. For those who wish to construct and submit as a standard any application profile, such as an XML schema, that extends the capabilities of the Darwin Core, adding new terms to the Darwin Core vocabulary that don't already exist in a compatible vocabulary will be a prerequisite. Consult the appropriate guideline, such as the <em>XML Guide</em> [<a href="terms/guides/xml">XMLGUIDE</a>], for information about the construction of a new application profile. The rules of submission of proposed standards can be found in the <em>Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG)</em> process document [<a href="http://www.tdwg.org/about-tdwg/process/">PROCESS</a>].</p>
