Biocode Commons Ontology Hackathon

Darwin Core needs to describe both the site and time where some activity occurred as an information content entity (e.g., in recording data from a lab notebook),therefore, we made locality description about a spatial temporal region, rather than a site.

An information artifact that is about a spatio-temporal region at which a process (such as collecting process, observing process, or material sampling process) occured.

This term replaces the obsolete class bco_0000025, but with the correct identifier format.
