esites - Sites Module

[rondlg]

This is a discussion to collate and discuss changes that we would like to see in the collections event in EMu. These may be structural or data.

OPEN STRUCTURAL CHANGE ISSUES

[rondlg]

• Include fields in sites to record bottom depth in fathoms. #872

[rondlg]

• Question 55: How best do we deal with the issue of bottom depth with regards to georeferencing marine sites? [IZ - KJ, RDLP, JD] #829

[rondlg]

• Question 108: How to handle depth modifiers? [IZ] #930

[rondlg]

From Field Guides drupal->datocms migration project.

There is a requirement to record the area of a particular place. There is no dedicated data structure to handle this at the moment. The interim solution is to use the "other numbers" MV grid on the sites tab with type = "Area | units".

• Recommendation to add NIST area abbreviations to the List of agreed abbreviations
• See also esites Topic 30: Standardised precise locality strings [DECISION] #30
