  description: The goal of the BCO is to support the interoperability of biodiversity
    data, including data on museum collections, environmental/metagenomic samples,
    and ecological surveys. The BCO covers distinctions between individuals, organisms,
    voucher specimens, lots, samples, the relations between these entities, and the
    processes governing the creation and use of "samples". Also within scope are properties
    including collector, location, time, storage environment, containers, institution,
    and collection identifiers.

    related data, including data on museum collections, environmental/metagenomic
    samples, and ecological surveys. A key aspect of the BCO is distinguishing among
    material samples (i.e. specimens), observing processes, and data about either
    of those entities.
