Description

Return observation share after excluding supplied setting time.

Source support, credit and authorization are different concepts. Supplied flags and vocabularies can support record bookkeeping but cannot independently establish consent, cultural authority, equitable credit or legal reuse rights.

Return observation share after excluding supplied setting time.

When to use this tool

Use Observation Setting Coverage Share when checking one explicitly supplied support, permission or credit convention.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter observedTime, possibleTime, excludedTime. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read eligibleTime, share. Use the output convention below.

Return observation share after excluding supplied setting time. Require possibleTime > excludedTime >= 0 and observedTime <= eligible time; eligibleTime = possible-excluded, share = observed/eligible.1

Limitations and assumptions

  • The fraction does not establish representative observation, fieldwork quality or appropriate participation.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
  • Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Verify the actual provenance, permissions and relevant community expectations before reusing or interpreting material.
