Talk:HISPID 5 for HISPID Users/geosou

geosou
Page: geosou This is a mixed concept and only partly corresponds with abcd:CoordinateMethod. There is no ABCD concept to deal with the first two items in the HISPID vocabulary (&apos;collector&apos; and &apos;compiler&apos;), but there is one in Darwin Core: dwc:georeferencedBy. We should probably suggest that this element be added to ABCD as well. I would actually prefer a name, rather than just &apos;collector&apos; or &apos;compiler&apos;, but that would probably have to be translated back in AVH for privacy reasons. Also, &apos;compiler&apos; is at best ambiguous and at worst misleading. –NielsKlazenga 14:37, 3 November 2012 (EST)

I think that collector and compiler are not methods and should be excluded from this list, and as noted by Niels those values can be inserted into the georeferencedBy field in DWC (agree that would also prefer the name of the person, and that georeferencedBy would be a useful addition to ABCD). However, I also think that restricting this field to this narrow selection of methods is also not useful (would like more detail) and prefer the DWC definition of a description of, or reference to, a protocol.
