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)

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).

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

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

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).

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.

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.

7407 01/31/2013 06:08 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

mappings/VegCore.csv: Regenerated from wiki. This adds Brad's DwC ID terms and their definitions in <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/attachments/download/621/vegbien_identifier_examples.xlsx&gt;.

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

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

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

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

4857 09/19/2012 09:31 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

input.Makefile: Maps validation: %/new_terms.csv: Include the entire map spreadsheet row, so that each new term is listed together with its mapping. This facilitates adding new mappings to mappings/Veg+-VegCore.csv directly from any new_terms.csv. Note that the use of `sort -u` (in lib/mappings.Makefile) causes multiline comments to be separated, leading to spurious lines for each multiline comment line.

4663 09/12/2012 05:13 PM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

input.Makefile: Maps validation: $(newTerms): Fixed bug where header needed to be removed before running filter_out_ci because filter_out_ci only removes the header if it matches the vocabulary's header. Removing the header afterward can cause the first row to be removed instead if the header was already removed.

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.

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.

4596 09/11/2012 08:22 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

input.Makefile: Maps building: %/.map.csv.last_cleanup: $(newTerms): Remove the CSV header from the terms lists so that multiple terms lists can easily be appended together

4594 09/11/2012 08:09 AM Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza

input.Makefile: Maps building: %/.map.csv.last_cleanup: Generate reports on new and unmapped terms in map.csv
