SourceInformation | -- Name --
source information
Contains metadata about specific instances of species distribution.
May be shared among several species distributions. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
inspireId | -- Name --
inspire id
External object identifier of the spatial object.
An external object identifier is a unique object identifier published by the responsible body, which may be used by external applications to reference the spatial object. The identifier is an identifier of the spatial object, not an identifier of the real-world phenomenon. | Identifier

methodValue | -- Name --
method value
Method by which the data on species distribution is collected.
The method by which the occurrence data has been recorded in nature or generated.
EXAMPLE Collection examination, grid mapping, line sampling, literature examination, random observations, statistical sampling, prediction modeling, estimate expert. | SourceMethodValue

method reference
A reference to a description of the method by which the data on species distribution is collected.
The reference to a more detailed description of the method use to collect or record occurrence data in nature or the method used in creating or generating species distribution by means of prediction modelling or expert opinion. | URI

External object identifier of the spatial object.
An external object identifier is a unique object identifier published by the responsible body, which may be used by external applications to reference the spatial object. The identifier is an identifier of the spatial object, not an identifier of the real-world phenomenon. | Identifier

speciesName | -- Name --
species name
Identifier and scientific name, including the author, taken from an international reference list, optionally completed by a locally used name and its taxonomic concept relationship to the reference name.
The authorized ReferenceSpeciesScheme provides reference species list which defines the ReferenceSpeciesName with its scientific name plus author and ReferenceSpeciesId. The LocalSpeciesName provides nomenclatural and taxonomical information about the locally used species name and the taxonomic concepts implied by the use of this name according to a given reference. If omitted the name and concept given by the referenceSpeciesId according to the referenceSpeciesScheme has been used locally. | SpeciesNameType
