Schema

Management

Type: Blank Node

View examples

The historical, current, and future management of a Site. Used to represent land use and land cover history, crop rotations, aquaculture rotations, and historical and future production practices. Each Management blank node must be unique, and the fields which determine uniqueness are defined in the management field of the Site.

Field Type Required Definition
term Term Yes

A reference to the Term describing the Site Management.

description string No

A description of the Management.
areaPercent number No

The percent of the Site area covered by this Management.
startDate string No

The start date of this Site Management in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD, YYYY-MM, or YYYY).

endDate string Yes

The end date of this Site Management in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD, YYYY-MM, or YYYY).

methodClassification string No

A classification of the method used to acquire or estimate the term and percentArea. Overrides the defaultMethodClassification specified in the Site.

  • physical measurement means the amount is quantified using weighing, volume measurement, metering, chemical methods, or other physical approaches.
  • verified survey data means the data are initially collected through surveys; all or a subset of the data are verified using physical methods; and erroneous survey data are discarded or corrected.
  • non-verified survey data means the data are collected through surveys that have not been subjected to verification.
  • modelled means a previously calibrated model is used to estimate this data point from other data points describing this Cycle.
  • estimated with assumptions means a documented assumption is used to estimate this data point from other data points describing this Cycle.
  • consistent external sources means the data are taken from external datasets referring to different producers/enterprises:
    • Using the same technology (defined as the same System or the same key Practices as those specified in the Cycle);
    • At the same date (defined as occurring within the startDate and endDate of the Cycle); and
    • In the same region or country.
    Modelling or assumptions may have also been used to transform these data.
  • inconsistent external sources means the data are taken from external datasets referring to different producers/enterprises:
    • Using a different technology (defined as a different System or using different key Practices to those specified in the Cycle);
    • At a different date (defined as occurring within the startDate and endDate of the Cycle); or
    • In a different region or country.
    Modelling or assumptions may have also been used to transform these data.
  • expert opinion means the data have been estimated by experts in the field.
  • unsourced assumption means the data do not have a clear source and/or are based on assumptions only.

Possible values are: physical measurement, verified survey data, non-verified survey data, modelled, estimated with assumptions, consistent external sources, inconsistent external sources, expert opinion, unsourced assumption
methodClassificationDescription string No

A justification of the methodClassification used. If the data were estimated with assumptions this field should also describe the assumptions. This is a required field if methodClassification is specified.

model Term No

A reference to the Term describing the model used to estimate these data.

modelDescription string No

A free text field, describing the model used to estimate these data.
source Source No

A reference to the Source of these data, if different from the defaultSource of the Cycle or Site.
