Map habitat (hab) to dwc:locationRemarks #109

Open nielsklazenga opened 8 years ago

nielsklazenga commented 8 years ago

I already brought this up in issue #23, but now it turns out that what we deliver as dwc:habitat is in dwc:locationRemarks in the AVH data set in GBIF (http://www.gbif.org/dataset/4ce8e3f9-2546-4af1-b28d-e2eadf05dfd4), so I think we should move on it and make the data sets consistent. It is the right thing to do anyway.

Niels, is this a case of providers need to map their data different? To me it seems the differentiation between occurrenceRemarks and habitat is consistent with DWC, and clear.

locationRemarks.

AaronWilton commented 8 years ago

opps, yes locationRemarks. That would of require adding locationRemarks to HISPID.

nielsklazenga commented 8 years ago

Yes, that was my suggestion. Perhaps a bit cryptic.

To be clearer, what we currently have in the habitat field are notes. I suggest that 'habitat' needs to come from a controlled vocabulary, just like vegetation etc. and that the notes that are currently in the field should go to locationRemarks.

HISCOM 2016: agreed to map hab to dwc:locationRemarks; keep dwc:habitat and add dwc:locationRemarks.
