'schemes' is a data source in the
vc-format which provides
a list of (monitoring) schemes for N2KHAB monitoring programmes, together
with defining attributes and optional information.
The codes of schemes, programmes, attributes and tags
are explained in the
data source namelist (which can accommodate multiple
languages).
A vc-formatted data source. As such, it corresponds to a data frame with 10 variables:
Code of the scheme, as a factor.
This is the ID for use in diverse workflows and datasets.
Corresponding names and shortnames
in multiple languages are to be found in namelist.
Contains no duplicates! A 'scheme' refers to a monitoring setup that determines
which types (habitat/RIBs) are to be investigated.
Code of the programme to which the scheme belongs.
The programme's code is explained by namelist.
Is a factor. A 'programme' refers to a N2KHAB monitoring programme.
One programme can correspond to multiple schemes.
At least the monitoring programmes MHQ and MNE are present.
The first defining attribute of the scheme.
Typically, the code is explained by namelist.
Is a factor.
In MNE, this is used to declare the 'compartment superscheme' (scheme collection) to which the scheme belongs, and which is named after the environmental compartment (however note that the surfacewater superscheme comprises two environmental compartments).
In MHQ, this is used to define the target habitat type of the monitoring scheme.
A second defining attribute of the scheme (if needed).
Typically, the code is explained by namelist.
Is a factor.
In MNE, this provides the code of the environmental pressure to
which the scheme is related.
It must be represented in env_pressures.
A third defining attribute of the scheme (if needed).
Typically, the code is explained by namelist.
Is a factor.
In MNE, this is used to declare an optional partitioning of the
scheme that would be constituted by attributes 1 and 2 alone
(environmental compartment and pressure), which will hence divide the
concerned types in at least two groups.
This typically has to do with differences in the considered
environmental variables or compatibility of interpretation. It is not meant to distinguish between different types or
typegroups for inferences, so types are kept in the same scheme as
long as the measured values have compatibility of interpretation.
To declare which types or typegroups should be
distinguished in inferences, use the typegroup variable in the
scheme_types data source!
Optional further defining specification of a scheme (in English): spatial restrictions, superposed on the restrictions already generated by the attributes.
Optional. In English. For additional notes on the scheme definition, if necessary.
Optional tag, e.g. a categorization ID explained
by namelist.
In MNE, this is used to tag which schemes are focal schemes and which ones are secondary schemes.
In MHQ, this is used to separate aquatic and terrestial monitoring schemes.
Optional tag, e.g. a categorization ID explained
by namelist.
Optional tag, e.g. a categorization ID explained
by namelist.
For the MNE-schemes: a vc-formatted, Dutch-language data source
which can be found in the
n2khab Github repository:
misc/generate_textdata/rawraw_data/10_compmeetnet_types_milieudrukken.
This data source was originally generated in the
n2khab-mne-selections repository
(https://gitlab.com/florisvdh/n2khab-mne-selections).
More information on the MHQ-schemes can be found in Westra et al. (2022).
