recorded date mismatch #5475

Open tmcelrath opened 1 month ago

tmcelrath commented 1 month ago

For specimens that have a month-range, e.g. May-June 1966, our specimens are being flagged as "recorded date mismatch" image

Here is how we export with GBIF's interpretation: image

It seems like GBIF is stripping the months and creating a mismatch.

Should export month ranges as YYYY-MM-DD/YYYY-MM-DD or YYYY-MM/MM e.g. 1966-05-01/1966-06-31 or 1966-05/06

Hi @tmcelrath I think the mismatch is with the value in the month field. This is because it is specified that the month is July but the range is July and August. Could you try to remove the value for the month field? I think this would solve the issue. Thanks!

@mjy - I think there is an issue here with how we export "month" when there is a range. DWC does not allow for month ranges in the "month" field.
