Abstract : Latimer Core (LtC) is a data standard designed to support the representation, discovery and communication of natural science collections. A Latimer Core record may represent a grouping of objects at any level of granularity above the level of a single object, from an entire collection of an institution to a few objects in a single drawer. The classes within the standard aim to allow the high-level representation of any given collection by providing a framework within which the defining characteristics shared by objects in the collection can be described. Among others, these include their taxonomic, geographic, stratigraphic and temporal coverage, and a framework for adding quantative metrics and narratives to help to quantify and describe the collections.
The creation of collection-level records is intended to promote visibility and use of items in collections that are otherwise wholly or partially undigitised at a granular level. This document contains a list of attributes of each Latimer Core term, including a documentation name, a specified IRI, a recommended English label for user interfaces, a definition, and some ancillary notes.

1 Introduction
1.1 Status of the content of this document
Sections 2 through 3 are normative, except for Table 1. In Section 4 and its subparts, the values of the Normative IRI, Definition, Required, and Repeatable are normative. The value of Usage (if it exists for a given term) is normative in that it specifies how a borrowed term should be used as part of Latimer Core. The values of Term Name is non-normative, although one can expect that the namespace abbreviation prefix is one commonly used for the term namespace. Labels and the values of all other properties (such as notes) are non-normative.
1.2 RFC 2119 key words
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
1.3 Categories of terms
A Latimer Core (LtC) record is a description of a grouping of collection objects using the LtC vocabularies. It is primarily focused on the description of natural science collections, but not exclusively. The terms in this document can be loosely grouped into several categories.
Terms describing the nature and scope of the collection objects within the group. These include a number of terms within ltc:ObjectGroup
class, and associated classes that provide information about the scope of the collection being described such as the ltc:GeographicOrigin
, ltc:GeologicalContext
and ltc:Taxon
classes. Due to the potentially heterogeneous nature of the objects within any given group, these classes and terms will often be repeatable within a LtC record.
Terms describing the group as a whole. These are terms that relate to the group as a single entity, mapping to the concept of a 'collection'. They include basic information terms within the ltc:ObjectGroup
class, such as ltc:collectionName
and ltc:description
, but also include terms relating to the management, accessibility and tracking of the collection such as the ltc:CollectionHistory
class and ltc:conditionsOfAccess
property. There is also some overlap with the generic terms in the category below, in the association of people, institutions and other organisational units with the collections.
Generic, reusable terms that can be applied in several contexts within the standard. Latimer Core uses a flexible approach to the representation of concepts that may be applicable in more than one concept within the class. For example, rather than specifying a separate term for each type of relevant identifier (for collections, people, organisations, taxa and so on), LtC has a generic ltc:Identifier
class. The type of identifier is defined in each instance of the class using the ltc:identifierType
property, and the object to which it relates (such as an instance of ltc:Person
or ltc:OrganisationalUnit
) is defined by the association with that class in the dataset. A similar approach applies to other classes in LtC, including ltc:Address
, ltc:ContactDetail
and ltc:OrganisationalUnit
. Similarly, ltc:Person
is reusable, but uses the ltc:PersonRole
class in conjunction with the ltc:Role
class to associate the person with instances of other classes in a particular role context (e.g. 'Collector', 'Record creator').
Terms providing machine-readable metadata about the LtC record. These terms are predominantly found in the ltc:RecordLevel
class, and are intended to support the publication of LtC records as FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) data. These include support for licensing and rights (dcterms:license
, dcterms:rights
and dcterms:rightsHolder
). The ltc:LatimerCoreScheme
class also fits into this category, and is intended to provide a mechanism to group LtC records under a common scheme and profile that allows the data to be appropriately aggregated and validated.
2 Borrowed Vocabulary
When terms are borrowed from other vocabularies, LtC uses the IRIs, common abbreviations, and namespace prefixes in use in those vocabularies. The IRIs are normative, but abbreviations and namespace prefixes have no impact except as an aid to reading the documentation.
Table 1. Vocabularies from which terms have been borrowed (non-normative)
Vocabulary | Abbreviation | Namespaces and abbreviations |
---|---|---|
Darwin Core | DwC | dwc: = http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/ |
Darwin Core Chronometric Age Vocabulary | Chrono | chrono: = http://rs.tdwg.org/chrono/terms/ |
Dublin Core | DC | dcterms: = http://purl.org/dc/terms/ |
Schema.org | Schema | schema: = https://schema.org/ |
Access to Biological Collection Data | ABCD | abcd: = http://rs.tdwg.org/abcd/terms/ |
3 Namespaces, Prefixes and Term Names
The namespace of terms borrowed from other vocabularies is that of the original. The namespace of de novo LtC terms is http://rs.tdwg.org/ltc/terms/. In the table of terms, each term entry has a row with the term name. This term name is generally an “unqualified name” preceded by a widely accepted prefix designating an abbreviation for the namespace It is RECOMMENDED that implementers who need a namespace prefix for the LtC namespace use ltc. In this web document, hovering over a term in the Index By Term Name list below will reveal a complete URL that can be used in other web documents to link to this document’s treatment of that term, even if it is from a borrowed vocabulary. It is very important to note that some vocabularies, e.g those of the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI), provide versions of the same term in two different namespaces, one providing for string values and one providing for IRIs, even where that separation is simply a recommendation, not a mandate. See this DCMI wiki entry on this topic.

Label | Measurement or Fact |
Definition | A measurement of or fact about a class within the standard, or a relationship between the ObjectGroup and an associated class. |
Notes | This class can be used to apply measurements, facts or narratives to the ObjectGroup as a whole, or used to qualify the relationship between the ObjectGroup and an associated attribute. For example, an ObjectGroup may contain 100 objects, of which 40 are from Europe and 60 from Africa. In this example, one MeasurementOrFact (count of 100) would be attached to the ObjectGroup, and one to each of the two relationships between the ObjectGroup and GeographicContext (Europe: count of 40, Africa: count of 60). |

Notes | This definition maps roughly to the concept of E57 'material' from the CIDOC CRM: https://cidoc-crm.org/Entity/E57-Material/version-7.1.1. The object, or artefact could contain biological parts, for example jewellery made of amber with insects in, or cloaks made of bird feathers. It should not be used for taxonomic identifications. |

Usage | A more generic classification of items in the collection than described in preparationType. |
Notes | Hands-on, practical attributes classifying the stored curated objects. You will expect to find these kinds and types of objects when you go to and access their storage location. This should not be used for classifying objects by taxon. The best way to do that is to use the Taxon class (formal taxonomy and vernacular names) or ObjectClassification class (informal classification). |

Definition | Used to describe prehistoric or historic periods. |
Usage | Used to describe the prehistoric or historic period from which objects in the collection originated. |
Notes | Often used to describe prehistoric or historic periods, but also geopolitical units and activities of settlements are regarded as special cases of Period. However, there are no assumptions about the scale of the associated phenomena. In particular all events are seen as synthetic processes consisting of coherent phenomena. This property maps to the Period class of the CIDOC-CRM conceptual reference model (http://www.cidoc-crm.org/Entity/e4-period/version-7.1.1). |

Term Version IRI | http://rs.tdwg.org/ltc/terms/preparationType-2024-02-28 |
Label | Preparation Type |
Definition | A term used to classify or describe an object that indicates the actions that have been taken upon it and/or the processes it has been put through to prepare it for scientific use or study. |
Usage | A more specific classification of items in the collection than described in objectType. |
Notes | These attributes commonly identify the parts or states that are the outcome of the preparation process, which produced the curated object. This can be the same as PreservationMethod (e.g. Bone), but is not always. For cultural collections terms such as 'bowl', 'textile' are appropriate at this level. This should not be used for classifying objects by taxon. The best way to do that is to use the Taxon class (formal taxonomy and vernacular names) or ObjectClassification class (informal classification). |

Label | Preservation Method |
Definition | A term used to classify or describe an object that indicates the primary or most recent action, measure or process that has been used in order to preserve the objects in the collection for long-term storage. |
Usage | For the purposes of a collection description preservationType should be used to describe the larger collection |
Notes | Preservation method generally describes the final storage state. Not intended to be used as the fossilization method. Use preservationMode for that. This field is intended to be use where a collection has a single or prominent preservationMethod. We recommend the Arctos PART_PRESERVATION vocabulary (https://arctos.database.museum/info/ctDocumentation.cfm?table=CTPART_PRESERVATION). For herbarium sheets use 'dried_pressed'. If an alcohol collection uses mixed percentages use 'alcohol'. |

Term Version IRI | http://rs.tdwg.org/ltc/terms/preservationMode-2024-02-28 |
Label | Preservation Mode |
Definition | The means by which a palaeontological specimen was preserved or created e.g. body, cast, mold, trace fossil, soft parts mineralised etc. |
Usage | Use to describe the preservation mode of a collection as a whole (e.g. Amber collection). |
Notes | This property should be only used in association with ObjectGroups that contain paleontological material. It is aligned with the concept of preservationMode in ABCD(EFG) (https://efg.geocase.eu/documentation/html/efg.html#element_PreservationMode_Link03032878). |

Term Version IRI | http://rs.tdwg.org/ltc/terms/OrganisationalUnit-2024-02-28 |
Label | Organisational Unit |
Definition | A unit within an organisational hierarchy which may be at, above or below the institutional level. |
Notes | This class can represent any level of organisational unit, incorporating institutions (e.g. a museum), higher units (e.g. a university to which a museum belongs) and more detailed structures (e.g the departments and divisions within a museum). It can be used to arrange these different units at different levels into a hierarchical structure. This class combines aspects of both class org:Organization (https://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-vocab-org-20140116/#org:Organization) and class org:OrganizationalUnit (https://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-vocab-org-20140116/#org:OrganizationalUnit) from the W3C Organization Ontology ORG (https://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-vocab-org-20140116/#overview-of-ontology). Recommended best practice is to associate a unique, persistent organisational identifier (PID) with each created organisational unit. This will allow an unambiguous and continual identification of the unit, as well as the creation of organisational hierarchies. Existing providers of PIDs for organisations are, e.g. https://grid.ac/ and https://ror.org/. The provision of organisational PIDs might be extended to intra-organisational units in the future. Properties of Class: Identifier can be used to add identifier information for organisational units. |

Label | Person Role |
Definition | A qualified association between a Person or OrganisationalUnit and an entity such as an ObjectGroup or MeasurementOrFact that enables the relationship to be contextualised with a specific role and time period. |
Notes | This class is aligned with the prov:qualifiedAttribution property (http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#qualifiedAttribution). It should be used instead of the Activity and PersonActivity classes to link a Person or OrganisationalUnit to an entity in situations where an activity is not know or is irrelevant, for example for describing a person's role within an organisation. It is not mandatory to link to either a Person or a Role in this class, to support use cases where a role is known but the person who fulfilled it is not, and where a person is known to have been involved but the context is not. However, it's expected that at least one of the hasPerson and hasRole properties is populated. |

In the context of Latimer Core, the main purposes of this class are 1. to define different semantic and hierarchical relationships between ObjectGroups, and 2. to support quantified and annotated relationships between ObjectGroups and other LtC classes (such as ltc:Taxon and ltc:GeographicContext) and properties (such as ltc:discipline and ltc:objectType) that describe the contents of the ObjectGroup, using the hasMeasurementOrFact property. |

Definition | A short textual name for the related resource. |
Notes | This property can be used to list resources related to the source entity which lack an identifier, for example if a separate record for that resource doesn't yet exist. In the Collection Description standard, a use of this is to list named subcollections of a larger collections at a time when the resources might not be available to create a full Collection Description for each of them. If at a later point a Collection Description record is created for the subcollection, an identifier can be added to the relatedResourceID property to maintain the same relationship. |

Notes | This property can be used to explicitly define the type of resource that the ID stored in the relatedResourceID property references, either to support IDs that don’t fully resolve and provide contextual metadata, or just for information purposes. It can also provide context for use cases where the relatedResourceName is used rather than the relatedResourceID to define the target, for example to attach a simple list of the names of related collections to an ObjectGroup. |

Definition | A flag to designate whether multiple instances of the same schemeMeasurementType may be attached to a single entity. |
Notes | For example, this property can be used to stipulate that, using the MeasurementOrFact class, only one 'Object count' may be attached to an ObjectGroup, but multiple 'Curator notes' may be attached to the same ObjectGroup. |

Label | Scheme Term |
Definition | A Latimer Core term used by the LatimerCoreScheme and the rules relating to its application. |
Notes | This class can be used to define which of the terms (classes and/or properties) within the standard (e.g. GeographicContext, Taxon, preservationMethod) are expected to be used within the scheme, and specify whether they're mandatory and/or repeatable. This information can be used by software and queries to validate the data and understand the rules by which metrics can be reported against the specified term. |

Term Version IRI | http://rs.tdwg.org/ltc/terms/isMandatoryTerm-2024-02-28 |
Label | Is Mandatory Term |
Definition | A flag to designate whether it is mandatory or optional for all ObjectGroups in the LatimerCoreScheme to include or be linked to valid data for the class or property defined in the termName property. |
Notes | This flag can be used for software automation and data validation. For example, if the termName is 'preservationMethod' (a property) and isMandatoryTerm is 'true', then an interface or query should always expect a value for that property, and can validate against that expectation. If the termName is Taxon (a class) and isMandatoryTerm is 'true', then similarly the expectation will be that at least one populated Taxon object is linked to every ObjectGroup. If the isRepeatableTerm property is set to 'false', then the expectation will be that exactly one populated Taxon object is linked to every ObjectGroup and no more. |

Term Version IRI | http://rs.tdwg.org/ltc/terms/isRepeatableTerm-2024-02-28 |
Label | Is Repeatable Term |
Definition | A flag to designate whether multiple instances of the Latimer Core class or property defined in the termName property may be attached to a single ObjectGroup. |
Notes | This property essentially defines whether the property or class is used for a 'tagging' approach (e.g. attaching multiple Taxon records to the same ObjectGroup to reflect the taxonomic scope, or a 'dimensional' approach (e.g. attaching a single GeologicalContext to an ObjectGroup, to show that it represents only objects from the Mesozoic). This has implications on how metrics may be handled, and more information is available in the non-normative guidance. |
