mappings/VegCore.htm: regenerated from wiki. made verbatimLocality a synonym of locality since they are used to store the same data.
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)
schemas/vegbien.sql: specimenreplicate.institution_id: renamed to duplicate_institutions_sourcelist_id, as decided in the conference calls (wiki.vegpath.org/2014-03-13_conference_call#schema-changes-2)
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).
fix: bin/map: put template: comment out the "Put template:" label so that the output is valid XML, and displays properly in a browser rather than showing a syntax error
bugfix: mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: nest all taxonoccurrences inside a stratum event, so that the parent locationevent is always fully populated before child locationevents point to it. (previously, a stub parent event was created when the child event was imported first, which blocked the fully-populated parent event from being inserted later on.) this uses auto-folding (for VegBank/CVS) and auto-forwarding (for other datasources) to prune empty stratum events for taxonoccurrences that don't have strata. (see wiki.vegpath.org/Auto-folding, wiki.vegpath.org/Auto-forwarding for more info about these normalization techniques.) note that the inserted row counts stay exactly the same for all datasources except VegBank (which was being fixed), indicating that this signficant change to the mappings did not change the semantics of the import of taxonoccurrences.
inputs/*/*/test.xml.ref: updated source.shortname for new datasource name, which now starts out with .new suffix
inputs/NCU/: switched to new-style import, using the steps at http://wiki.vegpath.org/Adding_new-style_import_to_a_datasource
bugfix: placed inputs/NCU/Specimen/postprocess.sql under version control
bugfix: inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: CatalogSeriesPrefix: enclosed comment in "
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.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: mapped municipality
inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: CityLocality: remapped to municipality because this is a placename, not a verbatim locality description
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
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
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
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: cultivated, oldGrowth: use just cultivated if it's provided, rather than /_alt-ing it back with oldGrowth (which it was generated from)
bugfix: mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: fixed priority of cultivated and oldGrowth so cultivated is used first if it's available
added inputs/*/*/header.csv for CSV inputs, which are now generated by inputs/input.Makefile %/install
inputs/input.Makefile: SVN: add, %/add: */logs: also svn:ignore *.gz, used for compressed log files
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.)
inputs/NCU/Specimen/map.csv: cultivated: Map false (0) to NULL because cultivated can only be true or NULL, not false
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.
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.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped occurrenceRemarks
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Only use one of collection and collectionURL instead of concatenating them when both are provided (as requested by Brad <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/Spot-checking#ACAD>)
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).
inputs/*/*/VegBIEN.csv: Regenerated from mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv
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.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: institutionCode list->sourcename mapping: _split(): Also match ; as a separator, and match separators with or without a following space
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>.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped recordNumber to new specimenreplicate.collectionnumber
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped individualCode. authortaxoncode: Prefer tag over recordNumber (collectionnumber), because this applies to the plant rather than the specimen.
schemas/vegbien.sql: plantobservation: Renamed collectionnumber to authorplantcode since this number, which identifies the plant, is actually different from the collectionnumber that identifies the specimen collected from it. This distinction is meaningful for plots data, but generally not for specimens data.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Removed taxonlabel for original taxondetermination, because the original taxondetermination is not scrubbed by scrub.make (only the most current taxondetermination gets scrubbed, because only a single scrubbed determination is added by scrub.make). This still leaves the original taxondetermination's taxonverbatim, which stores the taxonomic information for historical purposes.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Removed TNRS input taxonlabels meant to cross-link to taxonlabels added by the TNRS import, because TNRS taxondeterminations are now created instead
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: taxonlabel.taxonomicname: Prepend the family to the rest of the name using new _merge_prefix() instead of _join_words()/_nullIf(), so that any input taxonomic name that includes the family will not have the family duplicated in the combined taxonomic name. Previously, the duplication was removed only when the rest of the input name was equal to the family. This change fixes a bug in the new TNRS import where a pre-concatenated taxonomic name (Accepted_scientific_name) which includes the family is now used instead of Accepted_name, which only includes it when it's equal to the family.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: authortaxoncode mappings: Only use authorTaxonCode if there is no plant ID, because an individual plant gets its own taxonoccurrence and thus needs the taxonoccurrence's IDs to be unique to the plant, regardless of what the author designates as the taxonoccurrence code
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped authorTaxonCode
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: institutionCode: Removed mapping to sourcename.matched_source_id, which is now autopopulated. Split any list of institutionCodes apart using new _split().
schemas/vegbien.sql: Allow multiple institutionCodes for each specimenreplicate by linking new sourcelist table many-to-many to source via sourcename (which is now a linking table)
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Don't forward specimenreplicate IDs to location for plots data (where the specimenreplicate IDs apply only to the specimen)
inputs/NCU/: Refreshed data with new export from Bob
Renamed inputs/NCU-NCSC/ to NCU because this is the primary herbarium contained in the data
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped locality description fields to location.iscultivated using _locationnarrative_is_cultivated()
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: source table mappings: Set shortname to env var $source when it's not explicitly specified, because shortname is a required field of source
db_xml.py: put(): _setDefault(): Support setting multiple col_defaults at once by using the param names themselves as the column names
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Set the source_id col_default to the datasource name using the new _setDefault() built-in function and _env()
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: institutionCode: Also map to the sourcename's matched source, which identifies whether the source is a herbarium
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: institutionCode: Remap to source.shortname when specimen information is not provided, as is the case for geoscrub.herbaria on nimoy
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Concatenated taxonlabel: Don't prepend family if the taxonName/scientificName itself is the family, so that the family is not duplicated in the concatenated taxonomic name
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped oldGrowth
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Remapped cultivated to location when a TaxonOccurrence is not provided, indicating that the record is a plot
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped acceptedCounty, county to the matched place
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Removed mapping for coordinatePrecision, which is not the same as coordsaccuracy_m. coordinatePrecision is instead "the precision of the coordinates" themselves in degrees (<http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/#coordinatePrecision>).
schemas/vegbien.sql: coordinates: Changed coordinates.coordsaccuracy_deg units to m
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Removed _date/date, because _date using a string date argument is no longer supported under plpython3u (dateutil is missing). Note that PostgreSQL's own date parsing is sufficient for most dates, so this use of _date is not strictly necessary and removing it will improve import times.
schemas/vegbien.sql: Renamed reference -> source to make this table more broadly applicable, and because this now stores the datasource metadata
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: matched place's coordinates: Fixed bug where coordinates entry itself needed to have its datasource (reference) set to geoscrub, in addition to the place entry that uses it, in order to match up properly with geoscrub's corresponding input place (whose coordinates as well as place are owned by the geoscrub datasource)
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: matched place's coordinates: Fixed bug where coordinates mappings with and without matched_place_id=0 need to sort together in order to be merged, by prepending ".," to the place attrs list
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: decimalLatitude/Longitude->geoscrub input coordinates: Also set to NULL if 0 here, not just for the coordinates linked to the datasource's place instance
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: matched place: Also map verbatim place's geoscrub-related fields to the matched place, to link up with geoscrub's corresponding input place
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Renamed creator_ids to reference_id since they are now fkeys to reference
schemas/vegbien.sql: Made creator_ids an fkey to reference instead of party, so that datasources are stored separately from people and to allow adding reference-type metadata (URL, copyright, etc.) for each datasource
schemas/vegbien.sql: taxonverbatim: Renamed binomial to taxonname because this field is actually the taxonomic name without the author, not just the genus+specific epithet binomial
mappings/VegCore.csv: Renamed *Binomial to *TaxonName because this field can store more ranks than just the genus+specificEpithet binomial (that goes in speciesBinomial)
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Mapped acceptedCountry, acceptedStateProvince, acceptedDecimalLatitude/Longitude. Mapped decimalLatitude/Longitude to matched place's coordinates when acceptedDecimalLatitude/Longitude not provided (as is the case for the geoscrub table).
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Remapped latitude/longitude to new coordinates table
schemas/vegbien.sql: Renamed placepath to place since this contains primary information about the place, including the reference to the canonical place
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Prepend the family to the concatenated scientificName input to TNRS, so that TNRS can use it to disambiguate the genus
inputs/NCU-NCSC/Specimen/+header.csv: Fixed bug where needed ! at beginning to indicate a header override file, which prevents the following row from being treated as data
Added inputs/NCU-NCSC/Specimen/+header.csv header override to remove empty, unnamed column at end
schemas/vegbien.sql: Link taxondetermination to taxonverbatim (which is a subclass of taxonlabel) instead of directly to taxonlabel. This will enable later having multiple taxonverbatims for one taxonlabel.
schemas/vegbien.sql: taxonlabel: Renamed identifyingtaxonomicname to taxonomicname because the taxonomicname provided by the datasource is now in taxonverbatim, so there is no name collision. Note that both of these fields store the same type of information, but taxonlabel's is autogenerated while taxonverbatim's is verbatim (and is only set if provided by the datasource).
schemas/vegbien.sql: taxonlabel: Moved non-scoping fields to new taxonverbatim subclass table, which contains the component parts of the taxonlabel
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Also create the identifyingtaxonomicname on the verbatim taxonlabel supplied by the datasource, in addition to on the TNRS input taxonlabel that the verbatim taxonlabel is matched up with
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Expanded brace expressions for putting together the identifyingtaxonomicname
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Always generate the concatenated identifyingtaxonomicname, even for higher taxa, to ensure that this field is always populated. Note that this will cause names of higher taxa to be scrubbed by TNRS, but this is usually not a problem because such names either have no match or not a close enough match based on the name only. Naming conventions generally cause names at different ranks to be different, so that collisions with lower ranks should not be a problem.
schemas/vegbien.sql: taxonlabel: Renamed taxonomicname to binomial because it excludes the author
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
schemas/vegbien.sql: Renamed taxonconcept to taxonlabel per today's conference call, where it was decided that taxonconcept contained too many unrelated fields to be purely a taxon concept
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: identifyingtaxonomicname: Don't create if taxonconcept has an explicit parent, because the taxonName (which is generally only a component of the full taxonomic name, e.g. specificEpithet) is not globally unique. Datasources that provide name components in such a way that levels at or below family can't be directly concatenated cannot currently receive an identifyingtaxonomicname for input to TNRS.
schemas/vegbien.sql: taxonconcept: Renamed canon_concept_id to matched_concept_id, because this is actually the closest-match taxonconcept in the match hierarchy (datasource concept -> parsed concept -> matched concept -> accepted concept) rather than the accepted synonym, which goes in accepted_concept_id
schemas/vegbien.sql: taxonconcept: Renamed canon_taxonconcept_id to canon_concept_id to shorten the name, which is used often
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: TNRS-only mappings: Switch them on when verbatimScientificNameWithAuthorship is provided rather than when acceptedScientificNameWithAuthorship is provided, because it's the presence of a separate TNRS input name that really determines when TNRS is being mapped
schemas/vegbien.sql: Renamed datasource_id to creator_id so it can apply generally to any entity (such as a person), not just an aggregated datasource. This also enables taxonconcept.datasource_id to merge with creator_id, which now serves the same purpose.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Fixed bug where needed to set datasource_id=0 on the TNRS party (which concatenated names/TNRS inputs are owned by) in order to make it a datasource (a root party)
schemas/vegbien.sql: Renamed taxonpath -> taxonconcept as part of taxonomic schema refactoring at <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/2012-10-03_conference_call#Taxonomic-schema-refactoring>
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: taxonoccurrence.authortaxoncode: Only populate if needed to distinguish the taxonoccurrence within a plot
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: non-TNRS taxonpaths: Store the concatenated identifyingtaxonomicname in a separate taxonpath owned by the TNRS datasource, so that it will match up with (and create a link to) the corresponding submitted TNRS name's taxonpath. This in turn is linked to the TNRS-determined accepted name, thus creating a three-level hierarchy of datasource name -> concatenated name -> accepted name.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: taxonomic terms: Remapped the concatenated taxonomic name to new identifyingtaxonomicname to use it directly to match up with the TNRS submitted name. Continue to map scientificNameWithAuthorship to taxonomicnamewithauthor.
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Don't forward scientificName to taxonoccurrence.authortaxoncode when importing just taxonpaths, as for TNRS
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: taxonomic terms: Changed _first to _alt because some datasources have NULL values in scientificNameWithAuthorship or scientificName, so it can't just be used in place of the joined-together taxonomic ranks
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Taxonomic terms: Also join terms together in taxonomicnamewithauthor if scientificNameWithAuthorship is not provided, for use by TNRS
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.
schemas/vegbien.sql: Replaced "scientific name" with "taxonomic name" for schema-wide consistency and for consistency with the taxon/taxonomic name vocabulary
mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv: Only use institutionCode+collectionCode+catalogNumber as the authorlocationcode (location-scoping ID) if there is actually a catalogNumber. Otherwise, the mapping process would attempt to create one location for each collection in the datasource, when there should be one location for each specimen.
