Description

The Group Weight event records liveweight observations for a group of animals

The icarGroupWeightEventResource schema inherits from icarGroupEventCoreResource.

Properties

Name Description Required Type
Units Units specified in UN/CEFACT 3-letter form. Default if not specified is KGM. No uncefactMassUnitsType
Method The method of observation. Loadcell is the default if not specified. No icarWeightMethodType
Resolution The smallest measurement difference that can be discriminated given the current device settings. Specified in Units, for instance 0.5 (kilograms). No Number
AnimalWeights Array of animal id and weight pairs for animals in the event. No Array of  icarIndividualWeightType
Statistics Array of weight statistics, namely average, sum, min, max, count, stdev No Array of  icarStatisticsType
Device Optional information about the device used for the measurement. No icarDeviceReferenceType
TimeOffFeed Hours of curfew or withholding feed prior to weighing to standardise gut fill. No Number
GroupMethod Indicates whether the event references an existing animal set, has an embedded animal set, or an inventory classification. Yes icarGroupEventMethodType
CountObserved Summarises the number of animals observed in the event. Generally the number of animals in the group, but sometimes a sample. No Integer
InventoryClassification Describe the group of animals by their characteristics rather than animal identifiers. No icarInventoryClassificationType
EmbeddedAnimalSet Specifies the set of animals as a list of member animal identifiers. No icarAnimalSetResource
AnimalSetReference Reference an existing animal set by ID and optionally URI No icarResourceReferenceType
Id Unique identifier in the source system for this event. No string
EventDateTime RFC3339 UTC date and time (see https://ijmacd.github.io/rfc3339-iso8601/). No date-time
TraitLabel If the event represents a formal trait, identifies the recording system and trait. No icarIdentifierType
Responsible Use if an observation is manually recorded, or an event is carried out or authorised by a person. SHOULD be a person object. No string
ContemporaryGroup For manually recorded events, record any contemporary group code that would affect statistical analysis. No string
Remark A comment or remark field for additional user-specified information about the event. No string
Self Uniform resource identifier (URI) of the resource (rel=self). No string
Meta Meta-data for the resource. Mandatory if you wish to support synchronisation. No icarMetaDataType
Location Unique location scheme and identifier combination. No icarIdentifierType
