New CodeType SpeciesRecorded. for ESAS to clarify what 'all species' means

pcrjoana commented 3 years ago

This would be useful for cetaceans as well, with the added code "multispecies"

pcrjoana commented 3 years ago

Could the description of code 16 be more generalised? Eg. "cetaceans focused" or just "cetaceans". The reasoning for this is that in the JCDP format, even if a survey is targeting cetaceans, other things might be recorded.

pcrjoana commented 3 years ago

CodeType name should not be SpeciesRecorded nor SpeciesCounted. We suggest TargetTaxa. @Osanna123 to take the suggestion to ESAS and then come back with their opinion.

pcrjoana commented 3 years ago

Vocabulary will be called TargetTaxa

pcrjoana commented 2 years ago

After agreement between the data managers, a code for "cetaceans as secondary target taxa" was added.
