The ontology is based on the NCD XML schema version 0.70 developed by TDWG, but taken forward in development, especially the controlled vocabulary. In some cases property names were changed, but in general all names have remained and were simple adapted to lowerCamelCase. Properties based on NCD element names starting with "Collection" have usually lost their Collection prefix. Cardinalities and multiple languages have not been adressed in particular. DublinCore is expected to be used for the digital record properties and at the same time also for the physical collection description. The expected DC properties are: Digital record: dc:source , dc:identifier , dct:created , dct:creator , dct:modified , dct:contributor , tdwg:notes Physical Collection: dc:title , dc:alternative_title , dc:description , dct:extent , tcom:note , dc:format , dc:medium , dc:accessRights , dc:rights , dc:provenance , dc:relation Version 0.9 removed subclass declarations to classes outside of this ontology in accordance with Recommendation 2.9 of the VoMaG Report http://www.gbif.org/resource/80862
