Yes, indeed such discussion belongs to the TDWG list. To open the
thread we'd need some background of earlier discussions on
basisOfRecord. It is one of the oldest terms and wasn't it even
mandatory at some point. If I remember right, related questions of
the purpose of this term have been discussed earlier.<br>

<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff"> Dimitri brings up an
important issue. I think this whole list of allowable
values of basisOfRecord needs to be thought over. The
available controlled values do not meet the needs of earth
observation, where we work with quantitative data.<br>
<br>
My working list of values looks like below. Each of them
also requires an individualCount, if possible:<br>
<br>
1. Sighting (of live individuals from a distance, without
intervention from an observer)<br>
<br>
2. Observation (of captured, verified individuals, but no
particular sampling scheme)<br>
<br>
3. Monitoring (part of a scheme, where all individuals
have been counted, resulting in a quantitative estimate of
abundance, and lack of related record means abscence)<br>
<br>
Ideally, the protocol is also described in more detail for
the entire dataset, in an EML document. That applies in
particular for Monitoring data, where we may be reasoning
about abscence. <br>
<br>
I do not list specimens above. Specimens may be preserved
as evidence of observation and monitoring. (It is
understood that a specimen record implies an occurrence.)
Literature records and photographs are similar, as they
may link to any of the above categories.<br>
<br>
Would it make sense to split basisOfRecord into two terms,
which are "occurrenceType" and "evidenceType"?<br>
