dynamic properties format is not JSON #4

Open jhpoelen opened 6 years ago

Hey @seltmann - I noticed that the dynamicProperties contains:

targetTaxonName: Homo sapiens; targetTaxonId: https://www.gbif.org/species/2436436; interactionTypeName: eats; interactionTypeId: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/RO_0002470; targetBodyPartName: blood; targetBodyPartId: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCIT_C12434","eats: Homo sapiens

and TDWG recommends to use JSON (see http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/index.htm#dynamicProperties). Any reason why this semi-colon format is chosen?

@jhpoelen because I am not a computer. Those values were entered manually into dynamic properties field that is editable by humans on Symbiota. I can manually edit into a json format, but I would suspect I would create typos.

Glad to know you are not a computer! Can you attach a screenshot of the dynamic properties editor of Symbiota ? I am curious what that looks like.

@jhpoelen Here are two screen shots showing the same data entry form (top and bottom) where Symbiota users enter information about a specimen.

@seltmann thanks for sharing. I can see how you'd rather not use JSON is a free text field!

@jhpoelen got a moment to chat about this? I just had a change in thinking that I would like to run by you. https://appear.in/cheadlecenter
