dwc:measurementUnit

A term from the Darwin Core standard with equivalent definition in the dwc: and the dwciri: namespace:

The units associated with the dwc:measurementValue.

Notes

Recommended best practice is to use the International System of Units (SI). This term has an equivalent in the dwciri: namespace that allows only an IRI as a value, whereas this term allows for any string literal value.
