DarwinCore: The horizontal distance in meters from the given decimalLatitude and decimalLongitude that describes the smallest enclosing circle that contains the whole of the location. Leave the value empty if the uncertainty is unknown, cannot be estimated, or is not applicable (because there are no coordinates). Zero is not a valid value for this term. This term corresponds with the geographic radial of the final georeference.

DarwinCore: Notes or comments out of the ordinary about the georeference, explaining assumptions made in addition or opposition to those formalized in the method referred to in georeferenceProtocol. e.g. assumed distance by road (Hwy. 101)

DarwinCore: Notes or comments of interest about the location (not the georeference of the location, which go in georeferenceRemarks). e.g. Villa Epecuen was inundated in November 1985 and ceased to be inhabited until 2009

Date georeferenced

DarwinCore: the individual(s) who last modified the georeference and when that happened. These correspond to the final authority on the georeference in its current state, regardless of who might have worked on previous versions of the georeference.

DarwinCore: A list (concatenated and separated) of maps, gazetteers, or other resources used to georeference the location, described specifically enough to allow anyone in the future to use the same resources.

Details of the heritage site, which will appear on the website. HTML tags are included for formatting.

Identifier from Harbison, P. (1970). Guide to the National Monuments in the Republic of Ireland. 1st Ed. Gill and Macmillan, M.H. Gill & Co. U. C.

National Monument Number. Description from National Monuments Service: When a monument is taken into State ownership or guardianship its details are added to a National Monuments Register. In the earlier years, when a number of monuments were taken in State care at the same time, they were all given the same register number e.g. the monuments on the Dingle peninsula are all registered under number 221. Similarly, groups of monument such as the passage tombs at Lough Crew will have the same registration number. The register is not entirely up-to-date with the result that some of the more recent acquisitions have yet to be assigned numbers."

ID from spreadsheet from OPW of monuments in state care.

Description from National Monuments Service: Each monument is entered in the Record of Monuments and Places (RMP) as established under Section 12 of the National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994. A unique identifying number is assigned to each monument and place in the record. The RMP number provides the link to the records of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) which contains further information on the monument in question.
