dwc:verbatimSRS

The name of the spatial reference system (SRS), in exactly the same words as were used in the raw data.

Notes

Recommended best practice is to use the EPSG code of the SRS, if known. Otherwise use a controlled vocabulary for the name or code of the geodetic datum, if known. Otherwise use a controlled vocabulary for the name or code of the ellipsoid, if known. If none of these is known, use the value unknown. 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

  • unknown
  • EPSG:4326
  • WGS84
  • NAD27
  • Campo Inchauspe
  • European 1950
  • Clarke 1866
