About Plinian Core

Abstract Model [Current v3.2.2.7]

Available at: https://github.com/tdwg/PlinianCore/tree/master/xsd/abstract%20models/stable%20version

In order to validate the abstract model schema, some additional schemas are needed. These are also available at the same location.

Application profiles already defined:

It's important to know how we can deploy an Application Profile. If we want to check an AP, we have to download, in the same folder where we have our AP, all the files that are located in this link: xsd abstract-model stable-version. Then, when we open the AP in the editor, e.g: Altova, this one will validate the AP correctly.
