OpenAtlas

h1. Bone inventory concept

Initial meeting: 2024-12-09

Participants: Alex, Bernhard, Nina

Current (Dezember 2024) approach is to:

* Add a new OpenAtlas class *bone* (CIDOC class E20 - human remains)

* Add a system type *Bone inventory* with defined [[bone_inventory|categories]]

* Add a system type *Bone preservation* with options:

** undefined (default)

** 0%

** less than 25 % preserved

** 25-75 % preserved

** 75-99 % preserved

** 100% preserved

** If used as "value type" to track counts of *Bone fragments* like, e.g. Rib 3-10 L/R

*** undefined (default)

*** 0% - meaning the bone isn't available

*** 1+: positive integer as count of existing fragments 

h3. To do

* Mark bone inventory types which are meant as heading for subs

* Build prototype

* Test with example data from FemCare Vienna

* Test with transformed THANADOS dataset

h3. Structure

Besides connecting entities to category types, they will also connect between with P46 (composed of) to form a hierarchy

* These structure applies only to "editable" entities, "categories" that are used for display will be skipped.

* At THANADOS they are currently all tracked as direct sub of the skeleton

h3. Create new entries

* Data can be entered in a "guided" way starting with a button at the tool view of stratigraphic units

* We split the [[bone_inventory|categories]] into (not too big) groups for easier data entry

* Default of *Bone preservation* will be *undefined*. If left empty, no entities for these will created

* If a sub item is chosen, the main category will be created with type *undefined*

h3. Adding information

* Bone inventory values can be added/adjusted similar to entering

* Once created it will be possible to add information in the detail view:

** A description can be added (like with all other entities)

** Images

** Additional types (which can be added via the type hierarchy interface), e.g. diseases, dimensions, ...

h3. Deletion

* In the first implementation only entities that have no subs can be deleted (in the detail view). We might add a recursive option later.

h3. Analysis

* A percentage sum (average of the main categories percentages) will be shown e.g. at the stratigraphic tool view.

** Are different parts weighted differently?
