Values for MeasurementOrFact extension

Closed this issue · 3 comments

There are some useful physical data available that do not fit in the dwc:occurrence core, but could be provided in the MeasurementOrFact extension. These are:

  • Surface temperature
  • Bottom temperature
  • Water visibility
  • Current
  • Water type

It needs to be determined which ones we include. If we only include 1 or 2 fields, dynamicProperties can be used as well, in the format:

 surfaceTemperatureInDegreesCelsius=20.0,waterVisibilityRangeInMeters=10-25

This makes sence! But, in reality, divers don t record these parameters. And they will not add to much to the "value" of the recordings.

Example: I never recorded (in the past) these parameters in my divers log, We could suggest this to diveboard, but I think the added value is reasonable "Low"

We need more data to check if these terms are often populated or not.

Decided not to implement this.
