Steve Baskauf & Cam Webb Change from version 1.0 to 1.0.1 Add CC0 license. Changes from version 0.2.1 to version 0.3: removal of all functional and inverse function properties of object property terms, use of dwctype classes, deprecation of terms replaced by dwciri: terms, removal of references to TDWG Ontology. Changes from version 0.3 to 0.4 change DwC class namespace from dwctype: to dwc: to follow class proposal, removed references to TDWG TaxonConcept ontology; deprecated terms that now have equivalent terms in Darwin Core. Version 0.4 to 1.0 fixed reversed dsw:locates and dsw:locatedAt. Added labels. Changed comments and descriptions to conform to DC and DwC precedent. Added subClassOf relations to RO hasEvidence and isEvidenceFor. Specified preferred direction for inverse object property pairs. Darwin Semantic Web, version 1.0.1 .

Links a subject Event instance to an object Occurrence instance. Event Of Cam Webb In most cases this will act like a functional property (only possibly documenting a single occurrence), but some images may document several occurrences, so the formal specification of functional property is omitted. This property is preferred over its inverse if the link is made in only one direction. Links a subject Token instance to an object Occurrence instance.

Taxon Of ID Steve Baskauf, name changed by Cam Webb The toTaxon relationship is many-to-one (many identifications can reference one taxon). This property should link to a taxon concept (i.e. Taxon name plus Authority) URI, such as: http://biodiversity.org.au/apni.taxon/118883 ; deprecated 2014-11-21 to be replaced by dwciri:toTaxon To Taxon true Links a subject Location instance to an object Agent instance that did the georeferencing.

To Taxon Steve Baskauf Deprecated in favor of dwc:organismRemarks on 2014-11-21. Individual Organism Remarks true Definition taken from Dublin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. A spatial region or named place. Location A specimen preserved by drying. Dried Specimen This class is equivalent to the more well-known Darwin Core class dwc:Organism. It was deprecated following the addition of dwc:Organism to Darwin Core on 2014-10-26. A particular organism or defined group of organisms considered to be taxonomically homogeneous. Instances of the Organism class are intended to facilitate linking of one or more Identification instances to one or more Occurrence instances. Therefore, things that are typically assigned scientific names (such as viruses, hybrids, and lichens) and aggregates whose occurrences are typically recorded (such as packs, clones, and colonies) are included in the scope of this class. Individual Organism true Deprecated in favor of the Darwin Core class dwc:LivingSpecimen. Living Specimen true Deprecated in favor of the Darwin Core class dwc:PreservedSpecimen. Preserved Specimen true Specimen A specimen preserved in alcohol. Specimen In Alcohol A form of evidence derived from a dwc:Organism. Token Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. An action that occurs at some location during some time. Event Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. A taxonomic determination (e.g., the assignment to a taxon). Identification Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. A specimen that is alive. Living Specimen Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. An existence of an Organism (sensu http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Organism) at a particular place at a particular time. Occurrence Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. Replaces dsw:IndividualOrganism, which is now deprecated. A particular organism or defined group of organisms considered to be taxonomically homogeneous. Organism Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. A specimen that has been preserved. Preserved Specimen Definition taken from Darwin Core vocabulary 2014-11-21. We feel that this class should be considered to be equivalent to TaxonConcept (name plus accordingTo) in TDWG TCS (http://www.tdwg.org/standards/117/). However, this connection has not been explicitly expressed in the Darwin Core standard. A group of organisms (sensu http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OBI_0100026) considered by taxonomists to form a homogeneous unit. Taxon A taxon concept class (name plus accordingTo) considered to be equivalent to TaxonConcept in TDWG TCS (http://www.tdwg.org/standards/117/). This class was deprecated in favor of the Darwin Core class dwc:Taxon after the dwc:Taxon definition was clarified on 2014-10-26. Additionally, by that date the TDWG Ontologies (from which this term was taken) were effectively deprecated. Taxon Concept true Definition taken from FOAF vocabulary 2014-11-21.
