cover_percent,/aggregateoccurrence/cover,

intercept_cm,"/aggregateoccurrence/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=aggregateoccurrence,userdefinedname=interceptCm]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue","Brad: Incorrect for VegBank This is an aggregate observation. Used in line-intercept methodology only, describes the point along centerline at which an individual intercepts the center line of the plot. Used to determin relative abundance."

height_m,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/height,Brad: Incorrect for VegBank. This is a measurement applied to a single tree. Check with Bob

stem_height_m,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/height,"Brad: Same as for height, but applies to individuals stems, not trees. Rare."

coll_lastname,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/specimen:[*_id/reference]/collector_id/party/{surname},"Brad: Correct for VegBank. This is the collector of a separate specimen which vouchers this tree or species. I worry that vouchers are not properly accommodated in VegX. Again, we need to check with Nick."

stem_tag2,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/authorcode,Brad: see above

tag2,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/authorcode/_alt/1,"Brad: See commend for tag1. Your mapping for tag2 looks correct. Probably both values would go here, only nested, with one superceding the other."

tag1,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/authorcode/_alt/2,"Brad: Another type of code, typically a number, used by the original data provider to indicate an individual tree. These are numbers on physical tags attached to the tree. Tag2 Is the same thing, only used if the first tag was lost. Obviously not a good system as it's possible a tree tag could be lost and changed more than once."

stem_canopy_form,"/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=stem,userdefinedname=canopyForm]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue",Brad: Should also be userDefined for VegBank.

stem_canopy_position,"/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=stem,userdefinedname=canopyPosition]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue",Brad: Should also be userDefined for VegBank.

stem_liana_infestation,"/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=stem,userdefinedname=lianaInfestation]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue",Brad: Should also be userDefined for VegBank.

x_position,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/xposition,"Brad: Correct for VegBank. I'm not so sure for VegX. Let's ask Nick about this. These are important, fundamental values of many tree plots, and should be accommodated within VegX."

y_position,/aggregateoccurrence/individualplant/stem/yposition,Brad: See comment above for x_position

cf_aff,"/taxondetermination[role_id/aux_role/rolecode=collector]/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=taxondetermination,userdefinedname=cfAff]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue","Brad: Not sure where this goes. Indicator of identification uncertainty. 'cf.'=similar to the species listed, 'aff.'=related to the species list, but not the same. You'll need to check with Bob and with Nick where these go in VegX and VegBank."

det_type,"/taxondetermination[role_id/aux_role/rolecode=collector]/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=taxondetermination,userdefinedname=determinationType]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue","Brad: A SALVIAS value referring to the relationship between the voucher specimen and the observation. Affect how the identification of the specimen(latin name) is transferred to the observation. 'direct'=voucher specimen was collected from this same tree; they are one and the same individual. 'indirect'=voucher specimen was collected for a different individual, but the original data provider confirmed that this is the same species. 'default'=basically same as 'indirect'. 'uncollected'=no voucher specimen, data provider  asserted that this was the name but was unable to collect. The main different is that with 'direct', 'indirect', and 'default', the scientific name can be updated automatically based on the name attached to the specimen voucher (assuming you have a link to that data, presumably from a herbarium database. Whereas, if det_type='uncollected', the name can never change because there is no specimen."

habit,"/taxondetermination[role_id/aux_role/rolecode=collector]/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=taxondetermination,userdefinedname=habit]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue","Brad: Incorrect for VegBank, correct for VegX. This is growth form (tree, shrub, herb, etc.). It is an observation of a trait."

individual_code,"/taxondetermination[role_id/aux_role/rolecode=collector]/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=taxondetermination,userdefinedname=individualCode]:[userdefinedtype=varchar]]:[@fkey=tableRecord_ID]/definedvalue","Brad: Code, if any, used by the data provider to indicate an individual tree. Scope is unknown, although typically this value is unique only within plot, or sometimes only within subplot."
