Rules

  • A site agreement evidence item is a photographed site agreement, an on-screen signature or a recorded consent, and carries a date signed (ADR-0030).
  • A site whose agreement is in force, signed or uncooperative, must carry the signed agreement as an evidence item, a photographed site agreement, an on-screen signature or a recorded consent, with the date signed and the signatory as an agent in a role.
  • A site whose agreement is not in force carries no site agreement; the document stays on the act that put it in force (ADR-0019).
  • Instance data must not use the standard’s namespace https://nova.org.za/ncgs/ (ADR-0002: instances are urn:uuid: IRIs).
  • The census place must be a concept in the NCGS geography scheme.
  • The signatory of a site agreement is the landowner, the site manager or the owner, as an agent in a role; one signature is enough (ADR-0007, ADR-0030).
  • A site’s current agreement status is that of its latest agreement status assignment, and none when it has none; the agreement operation writes it (ADR-0019).
  • A site’s point is its current point: that of its latest site location record, or its registration’s when it has none; the site point operation writes it (ADR-0021).
  • Every site with a planting record is covered by at least one environmental education session, at the site or at a regional workshop its stewards attended: the proposal commits to at least one workshop per region.
  • Trees planted at a site never exceed the trees delivered to it: tree individuals named by planting records at the site must not outnumber the living trees the recipients confirmed receiving in the consignments handed over there. Silent on a site with no consignment until consignments are universal (slice 07).
