• [x] dataGeneralizations: are the data collected at a higher precision than IFBL square? If not, remove this field

• [x] catalogNumber: remove field

• [ ] recordedBy: can we share this info? I so, I would use |  as seperator

• [ ] individualCount: is this info available?

• [x] occurrenceStatus: add with present

• [ ] occurrenceRemarks: it seems like a lot of this info could be translated to samplingProtocol:

  losse waarnemingen -> casual observation
  ...

• [x] eventID: is there one?

• [x] verbatimEventDate: remove field. If a value is a true range (min != max), then write as such in eventDate

• [ ] samplingProtocol: is it possible to provide something? See also occurrenceRemarks

• [ ] locationID: is there a location id?

• [x] country: remove field

• [x] verbatimLocality: rename to locality

• [ ] coordinateUncertaintyInMeters: only needed values are 707 (1 km) and 2828 (4 km)

• [ ] verbatimSRS: is the datum of the IFBL known?

• [x] georeferenceRemarks: I would add coordinates are centroid of used grid square

• [ ] taxonRank: lowercase, except for speciesAggregate (write as such)

• [x] nomenclaturalCode: remove field

• [x] recordedBy: can we share this info? I so, I would use |  as seperator -> option to use #, will check with Wouter

• [x] individualCount: is this info available? --> no, 'streeplijst, collection or herbarium' could set to 1

• [x] occurrenceRemarks: it seems like a lot of this info could be translated to samplingProtocol: --> let's try

  losse waarnemingen -> casual observation
  ...

• [x] samplingProtocol: is it possible to provide something? See also occurrenceRemarks --> let's try

• [x] locationID: is there a location id? --> no, if there would be one, it would be the IFBL code, or maybe the IFBL ID

• [X] verbatimLocality: rename to locality

• [x] verbatimSRS: is the datum of the IFBL known? --> NO (i ll check with Wouter)

• [X] georeferenceRemarks: I would add coordinates are centroid of used grid square

• [X] taxonRank: lowercase, except for speciesAggregate (write as such)

• [X] nomenclaturalCode: remove field -> allé dan

• [x] eventID: is there one?

• [x] coordinateUncertaintyInMeters: only needed values are 707 (1 km) and 2828 (4 km) --> other values are more uncertain (707 --> 1000 'onzeker uurhok), 2828 --> 3500 'onzeker uurhok')

Let me know when data are available to be whipped again.

No eventID's identified

• [x] rightsHolder: add with INBO
• [X] individualCount: should all records be set to 1 (current implementation) --> yes
• [x] occurrenceRemarks: was it intended to remove this field -> yes, but on second tought I keep this
• [ ] samplingProtocol: this is currently quite messy, I would use controlled values (to be discussed with Wouter)
  • casual observation
  • herbarium
  • digital checklist
  • checklist
  • ... --> I can't say Herbarium is a samplingProtocol --> herbarium sampling --> I see the light
• [ ] taxonRank: contains veriety
• [ ] eventDate: write single dates as single date: 2002-04-27/2002-04-27 -> 2002-04-27

[DimEvil]

eventDate: write single dates as single date: 2002-04-27/2002-04-27 -> 2002-04-27 --> won't fix

• [x] rightsHolder: add with INBO

• [X] individualCount: should all records be set to 1 (current implementation) --> yes

• [x] occurrenceRemarks: remarks in this field, as good as possible

• [x] samplingProtocol: this is currently quite messy, I would use controlled values (to be discussed with Wouter)

• casual observation

• observation

• tally sheet

• herbarium sampling

• monitoring

• digital tally sheet

• [x] taxonRank: contains veriety corrected to varietas

• [ ] eventDate: write single dates as single date: 2002-04-27/2002-04-27 -> 2002-04-27 --> won't fix
