Scope note	The GeoTime vocabulary provides the nomenclature for geological time periods based on the Geologic Time Scale 2004 (GTS2004). These terms are used by a number of controlled value vocabularies designed to be used together with the TDWG Darwin Core standard...(what the vocabulary does and does not cover)
Editorial note	Notice that the base URI for the GeoTime vocabulary (draft version) is "http://rs.gbif.org/terms/geotime#". Please make sure that you are only using element identifiers in this namespace, e.g. "http://rs.gbif.org/terms/geotime#TERM". There may be copies of the vocabulary file on the Web which can be retrieved from other locations, but those locations should not be used as the basis of identifiers.
