Local Context Project IPT Demonstration
This IPT extension demonstrates how Local Context Labels and Notices could be included in a structured way within resources. Once endorsed, this may provide an interim or transitional solution for the provision of Local Contexts information with occurrences while other standards work.
An extended variant, like that for Measurements and Facts, could be created to allow linkage to occurrences for Sampling Event data.
