Darwin Core Terms: A complete historical record Title: Darwin Core Terms: A complete historical record Date Issued: 2009-02-12 Date Modified: 2009-12-07 Abstract: This document is an authoritative specification of all terms in all of their historical versions as maintained by the Darwin Core Task Group. While this document is useful for complete information and for tracking changes in the status and attributes of terms over time, most users will need just the latest information, which is held in the document "Darwin Core Terms: A quick reference guide" [TERMS]. Contributors: John Wieczorek (MVZ), Markus Döring (GBIF), Renato De Giovanni (CRIA), Tim Robertson (GBIF), Dave Vieglais (KUNHM) Legal: This document is governed by the standard legal, copyright, licensing provisions and disclaimers issued by the Taxonomic Databases Working Group.

1. Introduction

Audience: This document is targeted toward those who wish to understand the complete specification of the Darwin Core terms and their histories. Most users will not need the comprehensive historical detail presented here and should instead consult the document Darwin Core Terms: A quick reference guide [TERMS], for the most current basic information on recommended terms. Users who want the authoritative specification of the terms should consult the full Resource Description Framework [RDF] document.

This document serves as a complete alphabetically ordered reference for all terms associated with the Darwin Core, including historical versions (Classic, MaNIS, OBIS, Draft Standard 1.4, Curatorial extension, Geospatial extension, Paleontology extension) prior to having a standard.

Users interested in mappings from historical versions to the current standard may consult the document Darwin Core Versions [VERSIONS]. Users interested in mappings between the current recommended terms and the most recent schema for Access to Biological Collections Data should consult the document Darwin Core to ABCD Mapping [DWCTOABCD]. Mappings between historical versions and ABCD 2.06 [ABCD] are contained in this document.

Identifier:	http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/geospatial/FootprintSpatialFit
Namespace:	http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/geospatial/
Label:	FootprintSpatialFit
Definition:	A measure of how well the geometry expressed in the footprint match the original spatial representation, as a ratio of the area of the footprint given to the area of the original spatial representation. 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 georeference does not completely contain the original representation. The FootprintSpatialFit is undefined 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 FootprintSpatialFit is 1. Detailed explanations with graphical examples can be found in the Guide to Best Practices for Georeferencing (Chapman and Wieczorek, eds. 2006).

Label:	footprintSpatialFit
Definition:	The ratio of the area of the footprint (footprintWKT) 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 footprint does not completely contain the original representation. The footprintSpatialFit is undefined (and should be left blank) if the original representation is a point and the given georeference is not that same point. If both the original and the given georeference are the same point, the footprintSpatialFit is 1.

Definition:	A Well-Known Text (WKT; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-known_text) representation of the shape (footprint, geometry) that defines the location of the occurrence. The same place may have both a point-radius representation (see DecimalLatitude) and a footprint representation, and they may differ from each other for the same occurrence. Example: the one-degree bounding box with opposite corners at (longitude=10, latitude=20) and (longitude=11, latitude=21) would be expressed in well-known text as POLYGON ((10 20, 11 20, 11 21, 10 21, 10 20))
