<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB

from the fact that MEDIN provides the keyword value i.e. "Zoobenthos
taxonomy-related counts" and with this in the iso gmd:thesaurusName
element section gives a title of "SeaDataNet P021 parameter discovery
vocabulary" - there is no specification of the actual term id & url

section. The ingest system doesnt touch this element at all -its the
portal that takes the keyword value and recursively looks it up in available
lists to get a definition - I think this is how it works from what I've seen -
until the actual term url and version number is specified in the metadata I
dont think there's a lot that can be done?</span></font></span><span

the consequences of the dynamic nature of the P021 vocabulary, which has a
governance that allows term broadening and term deprecation for the MEDIN/NERC
portals. Basically, what can happen as a result is that the text
associated with a given URI can change and, if they specify P021 and just
P02, they can disappear. Anything that disappears (moves into P022) has a
replacement P021 term indicated by a 1-to-1 mapping.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

vocabulary in the metadata generation tools that produce the XML. This
leaves the issue of stale P021 text and deprecated codes in XML files ‘in
transit’ and metadatabases generated from the ingestion of these
files. We only ingest and store the URIs: translation to text is handled
by a dynamic call to the vocabulary server. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

this call returns the text as it was at the time of metadata creation.
Alternatively, replacing the version number by ‘current’ in a URL

displayed. We have adopted the latter approach in SeaDataNet, but it
isn’t the only approach.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
