- Abstract
- The Darwin Core term
pathway
provides information about the process by which an Organism came to be in a given place at a given time. The Pathway Controlled Vocabulary provides terms that should be used as values fordwc:pathway
anddwciri:pathway

1 引言
This document includes terms intended to be used as a controlled value for Darwin Core terms with local name pathway
. 如需詳細資訊和理由,請參閱 Groom et al. 2019. Improving Darwin Core for research and management of alien species. https://doi.org/10.3897/biss.3.38084
1.1 本文件內容的現況
在第 4 節中,「Term IRI」、「Definition」和「Controlled value」的值是規範性的。 「Usage」的值 (如果它存在於特定術語中) 是規範性的。 The value of Has broader concept
is normative. 「Term Name」的值是非規範性的,不過可以預期命名空間縮寫是術語命名空間的常用前綴。 「Label」和所有其他屬性 (例如「Notes」) 的值都是非規範性。
1.2 RFC 2119 關鍵字
本文件中的關鍵詞「MUST」、「MUST NOT」、「REQUIRED」、「SHALL」、「SHALL NOT」、「SHOULD」、「SHOULD NOT」、「RECOMMENDED」、「MAY」和「OPTIONAL」應按照 RFC 2119 中的描述進行解釋。
2 使用條款
Due to the requirements of Section 1.4.3 of the Darwin Core RDF Guide, term IRIs MUST be used as values of dwciri:pathway
. Controlled value strings MUST be used as values of dwc:pathway
.
