Hi guys,
Im with John that an environmental sample - is just a sample that in my eyes you wouldnt identify individual species from in the original record of that sample. If you identify individual species from an environmental sample you would then create new records referencing the original sample by association or something like that. Does that make sense?

I don't think I would mix the concept of Occurrence in that way. It should remain where and when and what was taken "from the wild" by what method. After that is sampling. It may be that a Sample core should not have all of the attributes of an Occurrence, or that the Occurrence core itself is poorly modeled by assuming that the Organisms will be identified. Couldn't we view real-world collecting in a way such that specimens are samples until someone applies some method to better identify them?

yes, thats true. Ididnt think about samples that way when I drafted the diagram.

The scenario I had in my mind was the environmental sample, a vegetation plot survey or just a rock with various lichen species on it.  Usually with rich data about the location, habitat and abiotic measurements (lends itself nicely to an extension for samples). In such a sample you then find various species which would be the basis for an occurrence. In the case of metagenomic samples the list of taxa is actually derived information from the amplifications and can vary according to the method used (basically the entire occurrence extension can be derived from the amplifications in this case).

Actually when you take a gut sample from an animal you often are interested in the fauna of that gut, so the occurrences would not be the host, but the bacteria occurring within it.

If so, then it is also possible to have a Sample Core (Sample rowType) with sampleID as the core record identifier, with "Sample" as basisOfRecord, and with all of the attributes of Sample and of the existing Occurrence Core. This would avoid having a distinct Occurrence extension for Samples, which could get confusing for those who are accustomed to mapping Occurrences already. This combined Sample/Occurrence Core could still have a one-to-many relationship to the Amplifications.

What do you think could be the possibility of adding a new Core type to the IPT on that time scale? The Darwin Core archive specification can certainly handle it, but the proof is in the implementation.

> >> Importance: High
> >>
> >> Dear all,
> >>
> >> My name is Katie Barker and I am the Global Genome Biodiversity Network Coordinator.  As you know from Paul Flemons, members of the GGBN Data Standards and Data Access Task Force are trying to pull together a task group, which you are all part of, for the upcoming TDWG meeting in Beijing this October in order to address a Darwin Core extension to enable data sharing of tissues and DNA data amongst its members.  I am contacting you to schedule a meeting in late September/early October to develop a draft proposal for this extension to be completed at the upcoming TDWG meeting.
> >>
> >> Please let me know your availability for the last two weeks of September and first two weeks of October.  There will be some scheduling issues, as there are task group members on the west and east coasts of the U.S., Europe and Australia.
> >>
> >> Paul Flemons (in Australia) will be in the U.S. the first week of October, so maybe we can meet in the afternoon of the 1st, anytime on the second 2nd, or in the morning of the 3rd of October over teleconference (US Eastern Daylight Time).  Please let me know if any of these time slots work for you.
> >>
> >> Gabi, I believe that you and John Deck will be at the GSC 14 meeting next week.  Is there any chance that you can start drawing up an outline for the proposed extension?  We could review the outline during our group telecon and start drafting a proposal for review at the TDWG meeting in October.

> >> Subject: Meeting at TDWG 2012 to define a tissue/DNA extension for Darwin Core
> >>
> >> Hi all,
> >> I am on the Data Standards and Access Task Force for the Global Genome Biodiversity Network (http://ggbn.org/)  which is in need of a Darwin Core extension to enable data sharing of tissues and DNA data amongst its members.
> >>
> >> To this end I am writing to you to ask if you would be interested in participating in a small working group at TDWG in Beijing this year.
> >>
> >> At this stage my plan would be to identify relevant fields for inclusion in the extension, using ABCDDNA as a reference. If sufficient progress is made then we would submit the extension for ratification by TDWG (is that how its done John?) The GGBN will use whatever comes out of the group to move towards having a suitable DwC based schema for data sharing.
> >>
> >> So please let me know if you are willing to participate in the task group and/or if there is anyone else you feel would be beneficial to have involved.
> >>
> >> How much time do you think we will need?  I have been thinking that a day will be needed, so we could make that consist of either one full day or two half days.   Im also thinking that during the week will be the best time for this.
> >>
> >> Thanks for your time
