dwc:verbatimCoordinateSystem

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

[dwc:] The coordinate format for the dwc:verbatimLatitude and dwc:verbatimLongitude or the dwc:verbatimCoordinates of the dcterms:Location [dwciri:] The spatial coordinate system for the dwc:verbatimLatitude and dwc:verbatimLongitude or the dwc:verbatimCoordinates of the dcterms:Location.

Notes

Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary. 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.

Examples

  • decimal degrees
  • degrees decimal minutes
