@Entity
@Indexed(index="eu.etaxonomy.cdm.model.occurrence.SpecimenOrObservationBase")
@Configurable
public class FieldObservation
extends SpecimenOrObservationBase<IIdentifiableEntityCacheStrategy<FieldObservation>>
implements Cloneable

In situ observation of a taxon in the field. If a specimen exists, in most cases a parallel field observation object should be instantiated and the specimen then is "derived" from the field unit

Method Detail

NewInstance

public static FieldObservation NewInstance()

Factory method

Returns:

getGatheringEvent

public GatheringEvent getGatheringEvent()

setGatheringEvent

public void setGatheringEvent(GatheringEvent gatheringEvent)

getFieldNumber

public String getFieldNumber()

The collectors field number. If the collector is a team the field number is taken from the field book of the primary collector.

Returns:

See Also:

primaryCollector

setFieldNumber

public void setFieldNumber(String fieldNumber)

setPrimaryCollector

public void setPrimaryCollector(Person primaryCollector)

The primary collector is the person who the field books belongs to. So the field number is also taken from him (his field book).

Parameters:

primaryCollector -

See Also:

fieldNumber

getPrimaryCollector

public Person getPrimaryCollector()

getFieldNotes

public String getFieldNotes()

setFieldNotes

public void setFieldNotes(String fieldNotes)

clone

public FieldObservation clone()

Clones this field observation. This is a shortcut that enables to create a new instance that differs only slightly from this field observation by modifying only some of the attributes.
This method overrides the clone method from SpecimenOrObservationBase.

Overrides:

clone in class SpecimenOrObservationBase<IIdentifiableEntityCacheStrategy<FieldObservation>>
