Revision as of 13:35, 21 January 2013

The Species Product Discovery Service is the main service realising the Biodiversity Access facilities in gCube. This service aims at offering an unifying view over the data offered by diverse data sources. In order to do that, the service makes available two typologies of objects:

  • TaxonomyItem, i.e. a characterisation of species taxa;
  • Occurrence, i.e. a characterisation of a dataset of species occurrence records;

by interacting with the diverse data sources.

This page describes the fields characterising every typology of object produced by the Species Product Discovery Service and how these fields are populated by using the information produced by every data source.

TaxonomyItem

The Fields

A TaxonomyItem object is characterised by the following fields: author, citation, commonNames, credits, id, lsid, modified, parent, properties, rank, , .

The semantic of these fields is inherited by Darwin Core Terms.

author
Description If the authority is known and can be separated from the rest of the scientific name, the authority string should also be placed in the ‘author’ field.
Example (Schltdl.) Crins
Darwin Core Term scientificNameAuthorship
Data Type string
Mandatory false
citation
Description Citation information specified by the data publisher.
Example Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=105838 on 2012-11-27
Darwin Core Term nameAccordingTo

id
Description The unique identifier used for a name or taxon reference in the core data file.
Example
Darwin Core Term taxonID
Data Type string
Mandatory true
lsid
Description An identifier for the nomenclatural (not taxonomic) details of a TaxonomyItem. It is exclusively used to reference an external and resolvable identifier that returns nomenclatural (not taxonomic) details of a name. Use taxonID to refer to taxa. Use to explicitly refer to an external nomenclatural record.
Example urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:37829-1:1.3”
Darwin Core Term scientificNameID
Data Type string
Mandatory false
modified
Description Date when the record the TaxonomyItem is representing was last updated.
Example “2009-08-21”
Darwin Core Term modified
Data Type calendar
Mandatory false
parent
Description The TaxonomyItem of the immediate higher-rank parent taxon (in a classification).
Example
Darwin Core Term n/a
Data Type TaxonomyItem
Mandatory false
properties
Description Any property besides the others that is worth to associate with the TaxonomyItem. These properties might include comments or notes about the taxon or name or data sources.
Example n/a
Darwin Core Term n/a
Data Type List <ElementProperty>
Mandatory false
rank
Description The taxonomic rank of the most specific name in the scientificName.
