*'''Note to aggregators''': In the case where the data are coming from an aggregator, an additional recordId field is required (idigbio:recordId). This is the media identifier, distinct from the one given by the provider in the dcterms:identifier field. It is assumed that aggregators are building their own archives, as this is not a Darwin Core term, and is not found in the IPT. | *'''Note to aggregators''': In the case where the data are coming from an aggregator, an additional recordId field is required (idigbio:recordId).

*'''Terms''': Use Audubon Core terms, http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/Audubon_Core_Term_List, with one record to go with each media record. The more you can flesh out the details of the image, the more likely it will be to be highly retrievable. The best practice is to use the taxonomic and geographic fields to capture as much information as possible when only media are given to iDigBio. | *'''Terms''': Use Audubon Core terms, http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/Audubon_Core_Term_List, with one record to go with each media record.
