Vocabulary: EcoAssets Earth Science Features

Vocabulary for categorising Earth Science survey and monitoring efforts based on the features observed. This vocabulary is based on the Global Change Master Directory (GCMD, https://gcmd.earthdata.nasa.gov/KeywordViewer/) vocabulary, extended with terms from the TERN Feature Type vocabulary (http://linked.data.gov.au/def/tern-cv/68af3d25-c801-4089-afff-cf701e2bd61d) and modified to use taxonomic concepts URIs from the Australian National Species List (ANSL, https://biodiversity.org.au/nsl/) in place of the GCMD Earth Science > Biological Classification vocabulary. ANSL categories map more readily to biodiversity survey categories, since GCMD depends on a top-level division between vertebrates and invertebrates rather than offering an animal category.\r\n\r\nThe Dataset includes three files.\r\n\r\nVocabulary_EcoAssetsEarthScienceFeatures_1.0.2023-03-23.csv lists the vocabulary terms, with the following columns:\r\n1.\tURI for term\r\n2.\tURI for parent term (empty for top-level terms)\r\n3.\tLabel describing term\r\n4.\tTrue if the URI is used as a feature facet (level 1, 2 or 3) in the EcoAssets Aggregated Data: Environmental Monitoring and Observations Effort dataset (https://doi.org/10.26197/e3n7-ys83), False otherwise\r\n5.\tShort form of label used for facet\r\n\r\nTreeView_EcoAssetsEarthScienceFeatures_1.0.2023-03-23.txt presents the vocabulary terms as a human-readable nested tree.\r\n\r\nKeywordMapping_EcoAssetsEarthScienceFeatures_1.0.2023-03-23.csv lists keywords used in TERN and IMOS datasets and how these have been mapped against vocabulary terms with the following columns:\r\n1.\tURI for term\r\n2.\tKeyword used in TERN or IMOS metadata\r\n3.\tNational Research Infrastructure (NRI) using keyword (IMOS/TERN)\r\n\r\nTo find out more about this dataset, visit:\r\nhttps://ecoassets.org.au/data/vocabulary-ecoassets-earth-science-features/ \r\n
