Map Q01 to P01 [BODCNVS-2102]

[EliLawrence]

Following discussion with the OBIS vocabulary team, the following Q01 terms need to be mapped to new P01 codes @gwemon

• Lower filter pore size
• Sampling device aperture width
• Biological sample size range
• Sample extraction method
• Sampling method
• Upper sieve mesh size
• Sampling device aperture surface area
• Sampling net mesh size
• Upper filter pore size
• Lower sieve mesh size
• Sampling instrument name
• Sample preservation method
• Subsampling protocol
• Sampling device aperture length
• Sampling platform name
• Sampling instrument efficiency (deprecated)
• Sampling device aperture diameter

Then they can be deprecated. Thanks!

Re-uses Name
Requires new S29 term "sampling instrument" defined as Equipment designed to collect physical samples.

Q0100003
P01 Preferred Label: Description of sampling method
Definition: Text describing the method used to collect the sample or make the in-situ measurement or observation.
Re-uses Description
Requires new S29 for "sampling method" defined as Method used to obtain the samples used for the analysis.

Q0100004
P01 Preferred Label: Description of sample preservation method
Definition: Text describing the method used to preserve the sample after collection and prior to the analysis.
Re-uses Description
Requires new S29 for "sample preservation method" Method used to preserve the samples after collection and prior to analysis.

Q0100005
P01 Preferred Label: Description of sample extraction method
Definition: Text describing the method used to extract the biological material from its surrounding matrix.
Re-uses Description
Requires new S29 term for "sampling extraction method" with defintion: Method used to extract the analysed sample from its matrix.

Q0100006
P01 Preferred Label: Description of sub-sampling protocol
Definition: Text describing the method used to divide the sample into subsamples.
Re-uses: Description
Requires new "sub-sampling protocol" defined as Method used to divide the sample into sub-samples

Q0100007
P01 Preferred Label: Size of sampling processor (lower mesh) >> Mesh size of sampling processor (lower sieve)
Defintion: The mesh size of the sieve used to sort biological material from a sample (typically a sediment sample). Only the material that remains in the sieve is used in the analyses.
Re-uses: Size This terms now deprecated use "Mesh size"
Requires new S29 for "sampling processor (lower sieve)" Equipment used to sort biological or geological material. Only the material that remains on the sieve is used in the analyses.

Q0100008
P01 Preferred Label: Size of sampling processor (upper mesh) >> Mesh size of sampling processor (upper sieve)
Defintion: The mesh size of the sieve used to sort biological material from a sample (typically a sediment sample). The material that remains in the sieve is discarded.
Re-uses: Size >> now deprecated use "Mesh size"
Requires new S29 for "sampling processor (upper sieve)" Equipment used to sort biological or geological material. The material that remain on the sieve is discarded.

Q0100009
P01 Preferred Label Size class of analysed biological entities
Defintion: The size class of the biological entities used for the observation. Specimens with sizes outside this range would not be included in the dataset.
Reuses Size class
Requires new S29 for "analysed biological entities" with defintion The biological organisms used in the analysis.

Please review the suggested terms above and provide help with defining what this refers to:
Q0100016 ?? sampling instrument or method? ?? ??

[ssmosstee]

Good Question about the Q0100016 term. I think one could define it either way. My first thought (when looking at the decision tree) is to allocate it to the method since it is higher up in the tree of decisions to make). Would something like this fit into a vocabulary like G05? But of course that falls outside of S06 or S29...

But now that I think about it more, the measurement of efficiency will only ever belong to the instrument that it was calculated for (since there might be more variation between individual instruments). Maybe placing the attribution under the instrument is better.

I can't speak much to the other re-mappings other than saying they all look good to me.

Following OBIS Vocab Team meeting of 15 Nov 2023 decision is to deprecate http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/Q01/current/Q0100016/ as this term is hard to define and it has never used in OBIS.

[gwemon]

I am keen to deprecate the concept "Size" in S06 (http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/S06/current/S0600023/) because most of the time we should use more precise terms like e.g. length, diameter, width, height, etc... When used, "size" should always be qualified i.e. "grain-size". We already have created a term for "Grain-size" in S06 (http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/S06/current/S0600192/). So I am proposing to create a similar term for "Mesh size".
