historyNote: 2010-02-04 SMR Updated from 2010 01 version by adding broader categories for 'digital conversion...', Direct observation, indirect method, and 'synthesis....'
historyNote: 2010-02-11 Add narrower relationship links by adding skos:narrower link in Protege, defining skos:narrower as inverse of skos:broader, calculating with Pellet reasoner to add inferred axioms, and using 'file/Export inferred axioms as ontology' in Protege.
historyNote: 2010-11-28 SMR replace URN with http URI identifiers according to CGI URI scheme
historyNote: 2012-02-07 SMR update URI to replace numeric final token with English-language string as in original URN scheme.
prefLabel: CGI Feature observation method
definition: This classifier scheme contains the CGI Feature Observation Method vocabulary, used to specify the approach to acquiring the collection of attribute value assignments that constitute an individual feature instance. Observation method is a convienence property that provides a quick and dirty approach to shortcut use of more comprehensive observation and measurement construct when data are reported using a feature view (as opposed to observation view).
