dwc:eventType

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

The nature of the dwc:Event.

Notes

Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary. Regardless of the dwc:eventType, the interval of the dwc:Event can be captured in dwc:eventDate. 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.
