This page provides an overview of the most commonly used ABCD elements with short explanations and sample values. If you're looking for a complete list of ABCD elements, please refer to the full documentation at the ABCD Wiki.

Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk. If you don't provide them, the element - and potentially non-mandatory sibling/parental elements - will be removed from the ABCD document.

Metadata

Metadata describe the dataset as whole - as opposed to individual specimens.

IPR Statements

The section Metadata/IPRStatements contains several sub-sections that allow to provide IPR (intellectual property rights) statements. Each sub-section contains the mandatory element Text for the statement and the optional elements Details and URI for delivering more details and/or a link to a web page mit more information. The seven sections are as follows:

Specimen Data

In ACBD terminology, a specimen is called a Unit; for each specimen, one Units/Unit will be created. Below you'll find the most commonly used ABCD elements in this sub-tree.

General unit data

ABCD element Example Remark
SourceID* Herbarium Berolinense The name or code of the data source.
SourceInstitutionID* B The unique identifier (code or name) of the institution holding the original data source.
UnitID* B -W 08738 -01 0 A unique identifier for the unit record within the data source.
UnitGUID http://herbarium.bgbm.org/object/BW08738010 A globally unique identifier for the unit record.
CollectorsFieldNumber 1055 The original number assigned to the unit by the collector or observer.
RecordBasis PreservedSpecimen An indication of what the unit record describes; needs to comply with a coontrolled vocabulary.
KindOfUnit Whole plant Part(s), physical state, or class of materials represented by this specimen.
Sex Male Sex of the unit.
RecordURI http://herbarium.bgbm.org/object/BW08738010 The web address of the page where more information on this particular unit record can be found.
Notes Specimen examined in a review of the genera of the tribe Eupatorieae, R. M. King & H. Robinson 1968-1969 A free text description of the unit. Any notes that do not fit elsewhere.
DateLastEdited 2009-030-7 The date of the creation of or last change to this unit record.
LastEditor John Doe The name or other indication of the person or team that created or last edited this record.

Botanical Garden Unit

ABCD element Example Remark
SourceID* Herbarium Berolinense The name or code of the data source.

Related Specimen Data

All specimen voucher information must be available via a GBIF compliant database! Both Darwin Core-Archive and BioCASE specimen providers are possibe! To provide the underlying specimen data you can use your existing GBIF dataset mapping.
File:Relationships.jpg
In the database and the mapping the child record should refer to its mother record in opposite to the real world example

Gathering event of the voucher

All elements marked with * will be indexed and must be mapped! Mapping these gathering facts twice (one for the specimen database and one for the DNA mapping) is required because of indexing and later search purposes.

Group Element Remarks Example
*CollectorsFieldNumber the number the collector gave to the specimen in the field, often used in Botany but not in Zoology; map it if you have content e.g. 765/10
Gathering/Agents/GatheringAgent *FullName the Collector or Collector Team e.g. Scholz & Sipman
Gathering/Altitude *LowerValue if you have both the lower and upper value in different columns map both field, if not map LowerValue only e.g. 100
Gathering/Altitude UpperValue e.g. 200
Gathering/Altitude *Unit e.g. m
Gathering/Country *ISO3166Code ISO code of the country where the voucher was collected e.g. US
Gathering/Country *Name english Name of the country e.g. United States of America
Gathering/DateTime *DateText date when voucher was collected, if you have content yuo can also use ISO format e.g. 21. April 1951
Gathering/Locality *LocalityText e.g. 5km NO Berlin
Gathering/NamedArea AreaName name of continent e.g. Europe
Gathering/NamedArea @language language of the name of continent e.g. "en"
Gathering/SiteCoordinates *LatitudeDecimal e.g. -15,88876
Gathering/SiteCoordinates *LongitudeDecimal e.g. 72,88876

Identification history of the voucher

Mostly specimen databases record the complete determination or identification history of a single specimen. For GGBN we try to get all available information into the portal.

Group Element Remarks Example
Identification *PreferredFlag mark the presently preferred Identification e.g. true, false, 0, 1
Identification/HigherTaxon *HigherTaxonName the name of the higher taxon, please have a look at the BioCASE Wiki for how to prepare your database for the repeatable elements e.g. Asteraceae, Animalia
Identification/HigherTaxon *HigherTaxonRank the rank of the taxon in english or latin e.g. familia, regnum, phylum
Identification/ScientificName *FullScientificName the complete name of the taxon including Authors (and years for animals) e.g. Aaronsohnia factorovskyi Warb. & Eig. var. factorovskyi
Identification/ScientificName/NameAtomised *FirstEpithet Please note: ABCD has several container for NameAtomised, it depens on your sampes which one to choose (Botanical or Zoology etc.) e.g. factorovskyi
Identification/ScientificName/NameAtomised *GenusOrMonomial e.g. Aaronsohnia
Identification/ScientificName/NameAtomised *InfraspecificEpithet Please note: ABCD has several container for NameAtomised, it depens on your sampes which one to choose (Botanical or Zoology etc.) e.g. factorovskyi
Identification/ScientificName/NameAtomised *Rank Please note: ABCD has several container for NameAtomised, it depens on your sampes which one to choose (Botanical or Zoology etc.) e.g. var.
