mappings/VegCore.htm: regenerated from wiki. made verbatimLocality a synonym of locality since they are used to store the same data.

12963 03/28/2014 02:39 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

fix: inputs/*/*/map.csv: remapped occurrenceID-mapped fields to dataProviderRecordID when these were not globally unique DwC occurrenceIDs (http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/#occurrenceID)

12879 03/24/2014 01:49 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.htm: regenerated from wiki: rename specimenHolderInstitutions to specimen_duplicate_institutions, as decided in the 2014-03-13 conference call (wiki.vegpath.org/2014-03-13_conference_call#schema-changes-2). note that most schema changes (such as this one) involve mappings changes, which are handled automatically by `inputs/run postprocess; yes|make inputs/{NVS,SALVIAS,TEAM}/test`.

moved everything into /trunk/ to create the standard svn layout, for use with tools that require this (eg. git-svn). IMPORTANT: do NOT do an `svn up`. instead, re-use your working copy's existing files with `svn switch` (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.6/svn.ref.svn.c.switch.html).

10569 08/01/2013 04:04 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU/: switched to new-style import, using the steps at http://wiki.vegpath.org/Adding_new-style_import_to_a_datasource

10567 08/01/2013 03:57 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

bugfix: inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: CatalogSeriesPrefix: enclosed comment in "

10566 08/01/2013 03:43 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: OwnerInstitution: remapped to specimenOwner rather than specimenHolderInstitutions. OwnerInstitution, CatalogSeriesPrefix: documented the VegCore SQL dotpath (http://wiki.vegpath.org/SQL_dotpaths) that would be used to refer to the field. this specifies the destination field at a much finer level of detail than the one-size-fits-all denormalized name.

10564 08/01/2013 02:46 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: CityLocality: remapped to municipality because this is a placename, not a verbatim locality description

10563 08/01/2013 02:25 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU/Specimen/: translated single-column filters to postprocessing derived columns, using the steps at wiki.vegpath.org/Adding_new-style_import_to_a_datasource#Translating-filters-to-postprocessing-derived-columns

10257 07/11/2013 12:09 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: added distinguishing #... suffix (e.g. UNUSED#institutionID) to the special terms OMIT, PRIVATE, UNUSED (VegCore.vegpath.org#Special-terms) to avoid creating a collision in the staging table renaming

10209 07/10/2013 02:32 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv for CSV tables with a row_num column: added missing row_num entry, which is needed by the staging table column renaming to make the order of the map.csv columns match the order in the staging table

8176 03/25/2013 09:01 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/input.Makefile: %/.map.csv.last_cleanup: Run fix_line_endings after canon/translate to standardize Python's \r\n line endings back to \n. This prevents issues with mixed line endings because LibreOffice (and probably Excel) treat all cell-internal line endings as \n but row line endings as whatever the file had, while text editors like jEdit translate all line endings to whatever the autodetected line ending is. (This creates spurious line ending diffs when a map spreadsheet containing multiline cells is edited in a text editor.)

7875 03/08/2013 10:26 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: cultivated: Map false (0) to NULL because cultivated can only be true or NULL, not false

7841 03/05/2013 09:07 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.htm: Regenerated from wiki. Renamed specimenHolders to specimenHolderInstitutions to make it obvious that this is a list of institutions, such as would be in institutionCode in a DwC export.

7716 02/26/2013 05:47 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.htm: Regenerated from wiki. Remapped organismNotes to be a synonym of occurrenceRemarks, since notes on an organism are more generally notes on an occurrence.

7646 02/22/2013 08:17 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.htm: Regenerated from wiki. Documentation has been added on how to choose term names (https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCore#Naming) and how to form globally unique ID values (https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCore#Forming-IDs). Source and Specimen terms have been renamed to be self-explanatory and unambiguous (the DwC equivalents remain as synonyms). Short definitions of Source terms have been added to explain the differences between them. Source, Specimen, and Collection terms have been shortened according to the new instructions for choosing preferred term names (https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCore#Naming).

7527 02/12/2013 01:08 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.htm: Regenerated from wiki. Brad's new DwC ID terms spreadsheet has now been added, and a number of the ID terms clarified, disambiguated, and recategorized. In particular, institutionCode has now been split into the custodialInstitutions and collectingInstitution, to differentiate between which institution has the specimen vs. stamped the specimen. This distinction is important because the catalogNumber, stamped on the specimen, is only unique within the collectingInstitution. Most datasources don't unambiguously specify which institution their institutionCode is referring to, so it has been assumed to be custodialInstitutions unless a data dictionary says otherwise (as is the case for UNCC). In addition, a MatchedTaxonDetermination table has been added with the *_matched fields from TNRS.

7469 02/05/2013 04:32 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv, inputs/*/*/map.csv: Applied term renamings from the new dynamically generated Veg+-VegCore.csv, which reflects the current state of the data dictionary. (Permanently switching to the new Veg+-VegCore.csv will be a separate change.) Updates to VegCore term names that have occurred since the data dictionary was created are now able to take effect, which involves remapping and inferring units on several fields.

6737 12/11/2012 12:04 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU/: Refreshed data with new export from Bob

6736 12/10/2012 09:33 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

Renamed inputs/NCU-NCSC/ to NCU because this is the primary herbarium contained in the data

6735 12/10/2012 09:31 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

Renamed inputs/NCU-NCSC/ to NCU because this is the primary herbarium contained in the data

5947 11/01/2012 09:29 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.csv: Renamed *Binomial to *TaxonName because this field can store more ranks than just the genus+specificEpithet binomial (that goes in speciesBinomial)

5631 10/18/2012 11:57 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings: Renamed *scientificName to *binomial because DwC defines the scientificName as "The full scientific name, with authorship and date information if known", but many datasources do not include the author in their scientific name, and the fields scientificName is mapped to in VegBIEN assume it does not include the author

4979 09/25/2012 04:52 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Prefix a * to every term that's not in Veg+ for easy identification of unmapped terms when editing map.csv. Note that canon will remove the * when it finds a matching Veg+ term.

4905 09/20/2012 11:06 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Remapped latitude/longitude to decimalLatitude/Longitude because these fields almost always have units of decimal degrees

4817 09/18/2012 09:21 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU-NCSC/Specimen/map.csv: Elevation: Removed comment that it includes units, because this is now part of the definition of verbatimElevation

4808 09/18/2012 08:02 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU-NCSC/Specimen/map.csv: Documented that Elevation includes units

4679 09/14/2012 05:59 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Changed output column header from Veg+ to VegCore because the names will be VegCore names after automapping. This is possible now that we're using new automapping scripts that do not require a particular column header.

4657 09/12/2012 04:14 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Moved filter suffixes to separate filter column to enable automapping to work on those mappings' terms, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/Map_refactoring#Move-filter-suffixes-to-separate-filter-column&gt;. Note that the only changes to VegBIEN.csvs are the (now automapped) names of terms in "No join mapping" comments.

4656 09/12/2012 03:37 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Added Filter column to contain any suffix added after the term, so that the automapping mechanism does not have to deal with the filter expressions

4651 09/12/2012 02:18 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Removed no longer needed [Veg+] suffix in root, because the input column is no longer used by old-style map utilities such as union that needed this

4638 09/12/2012 12:43 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Changed empty mappings to self mappings, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/Map_refactoring#Change-empty-mappings-to-self-mappings&gt;. Note that in map.full.csv and VegBIEN.csv, lines that have changed are always the result of the input field's case being changed to match the case of the datasource's actual column name.

4636 09/12/2012 12:14 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/*/map.csv: Added back automapped mappings to map.csv, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/Map_refactoring#Add-back-automapped-mappings-to-mapcsv>

4592 09/11/2012 07:26 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

input.Makefile: Maps building: %/.map.csv.last_cleanup: Translate map.csv using $(mappings)/$(via)-VegCore.csv

4587 09/11/2012 06:43 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

input.Makefile: Maps building: %/.map.csv.last_cleanup: Canonicalize map.csv using $(mappings)/$(via).vocab.csv

4558 09/11/2012 12:28 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/UNCC/Specimen/map.csv, inputs/NCU-NCSC/Specimen/map.csv: Remapped cultivated fields directly via new cultivated term, rather than via establishmentMeans

4386 08/30/2012 12:45 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/: Renamed subfolders to VegCSV names, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV_subfolders#Rename-subfolders-to-VegCSV-names>

4182 08/22/2012 03:23 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs: Move src subdir into main dir, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV_subfolders#Move-src-subdir-into-main-dir>

4118 08/20/2012 08:46 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs: Moved maps into subfolders, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV_subfolders#Move-maps-into-subfolders>

4117 08/20/2012 07:16 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs: Replaced Veg+ prefix with map on via maps, using the steps at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV_subfolders#Replace-Veg-prefix-with-map-on-via-maps>

4088 08/16/2012 08:30 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

Merged DwC (including DwC1) and VegCSV mappings into new Veg+ schema. This involves replacing occurrences of DwC and VegCSV with Veg+ (or sometimes VegCore) everywhere, as described in <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV-DwC_merging&gt;.

3753 08/02/2012 05:23 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

DwC mappings: Removed ':/list/' root (full version: '::[@xmlns:dcterms=http://purl.org/dc/terms/]/list/') from map spreadsheets to simplify the boilerplate in each file. Since intermediate DwC XML files no longer need to be produced for automated tests, these roots are not needed.

2184 05/14/2012 03:42 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

Mapped some unmapped fields in DwC inputs

1770 04/03/2012 03:23 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/*/maps/DwC.specimens.csv: Removed extranenous XML meta info from DwC column root, since it now just needs to be present in the core via map mappings/DwC-VegBIEN.specimens.csv

1537 03/20/2012 10:08 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

xml_func.py: _map: Instead of _closed special entry, make all maps closed by default and open them if special entry "*=*" is present. Support using a _map to filter values by interpreting special entry "*=" as removing all values not explicitly specified, and by interpreting special value "*" as keeping input value the same.

1487 03/19/2012 07:20 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU-NCSC/maps/DwC.specimens.csv: Removed State->StateProvince mapping because that is now in mappings/DwC1-DwC2.specimens.csv

1474 03/19/2012 04:26 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

inputs/NCU-NCSC/maps/DwC.specimens.csv: "Cultivated?": For clarity, use _map instead of _if to translate boolean to "cultivated". Translate "No" to "wild" (the opposite of "cultivated") to store an explicit not-cultivated as such.

1440 03/16/2012 05:35 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

Renamed inputs/UNC-NCSC to inputs/NCU-NCSC to match herbarium code

1425 03/16/2012 03:31 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

Added inputs/UNC-NCSC/maps
