OBIS Schema
The OBIS Schema is a content specification designed for data about the geographical occurences of species (i.e. the observation or collection of a particular species or other taxonomic group at a particular location).
The OBIS schema is the content standard used by OBIS, the Ocean Biogeographic Information System. It represents an extension of the Darwin Core Version 2. It is designed for marine biodiversity data, specifically to record the capture or observation of a particular species or other taxonomic group at a particular location. It can also be applied to museum specimen data.
