The Audubon Core is a set of vocabularies designed to represent metadata for biodiversity multimedia resources and collections. For images of objects beside specimens, we recommend that the Audubon Core field be populated using the subjectCategory using this convention:
Term Name: ac:subjectCategory=label
Term Name: ac:subjectCategory=packaging
When multiple images are included in a single multimedia record, they can be listed as an array, separating entities in the following manner
Term Name: ac:subjectCategory=[specimen, label, packaging]
There controlled vocabulary for attributes are: specimen, label, packaging, and other. We recommend this field is included with institutional data served to idigbio. We recommend this field is included with institutional data served to idigbio.
a) specimen form (3D object, 2D object, thin section, peel, mounted slide, etc.) and
b) orientation (brachial valve interior, left valve exterior, lateral, abapatural, etc.).
controlled vocab for ac:subjectCategory
designation of multimedia type, e.g. 2D vs. 3D, SEM, CT
Specimen form (Is this the same as one of the versions of prep?)
Orientation (controlled vocabulary?
