@klausriede thanks for exploring the DwC!!
@klausriede what system locale are you using in Windows? Spanish?
Looks good at my end using LibreOffice Calc in Ubuntu:
I think although I have the OS in English language, locale is Spanish (Argentina), but I think Calc ignores and interpretes period as decimal separator rather than thousands separator.
ah ok, strange that only some values are corrupt. In any case did you check ranges?
Because if following a period there are not exactly 3 digits then it is not assumed to be thousands separator and cell becomes text type (notice alignment is different in your capture for those coordinates that were not messed up).
I believe georeferences are checked both by TW and database system. Don't remember what happens with verbatim lat/log, but DwC is probably validated? @mjy
There is a corresponding taxonworks issue IIRC, but yes, when we export values to DwC then we use Georeference values that may not appear the same as the verbatim IIRC.
Does this mean that the respective field has no datatype declaration?
ANOTHER outofrange case from nemobiinae csv, using
...and bingo, correct in CSV
No idea how this latitude out of range affects map display, but it is definitely wrong. Should be easy to check for latlongs out of range.
