Chapter Abstract
In this 2nd chapter of the Darwin Core Hour series, we will glance
at the list of Darwin Core terms that are recommended to be
populated with values from controlled vocabularies. From that
list we’ll look at some basic terms (e.g., dcterms:type,
dwc:basisOfRecord, etc.) for which there are clearly recommended
controlled vocabularies. We will explore how controlled vocabularies
are used in practice and how usage differs from the recommendations.
We’ll discuss what the consequences might be of not following
controlled vocabularies, and the converse - what the consequences
might be of doing so. We’ll look at some of the secrets of how
aggregators deal with the problem and the lessons we can learn from
them. Finally, we will review questions that have been submitted
related to this particular subject and open the webinar for further
discussion.
Presenter: John Wieczorek
