Types that may be used for different domains (descriptions, taxonomy, specimen collections, etc.):
 
Many of the types or elements within the types are resulting from attemtps to standardize usage between ABCD and SDD and many originate from Gregor Hagedorn's work on the UBIF schema.
 
However, note that this is work in progress, so there may be considerable differences between types with the same names in UBIF/SDD and ABCD.

Namespace http://www.tdwg.org/schemas/abcd/2.06
Annotations
 
The extension is temporary and serves only to accommodate urgent inter-version additions to the unit-object schema [in future to the the various schemas/objects used in ABCD]. For example, if a specific community (e.g. culture collections) discover that there are elements missing in the current version of ABCD (as they did for 1.2), they communicate that to the group responsible for schema development, where it will be discussed if these elements are already accommodated in the schema, if not, if they can and should be generalized and where they should end up in the schema. IF the culture collection community needs to move rapidly (e.g. due to project pressures), they can add these elements to the current version as an extension schema under a structure that follows SDD's CustomExtensions element (CustomExtensions-CustomExtension-Any ##other). In future modular versions of ABCD, such a structure should exist in the root of every object/schema.

IF the culture collection community needs to move rapidly (e.g. due to project pressures), they can add these elements to the current version as an extension schema under a structure that follows SDD's CustomExtensions element (CustomExtensions-CustomExtension-Any ##other). In future modular versions of ABCD, such a structure should exist in the root of every object/schema.</xs:documentation>
