For a Time Series, the samplingTime gives the temporal bounds of the time series. For a single time, the begin and end times must be identical. Dates and times are expressed in ISO 8601 syntax with punctuation: yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ. Least significant components may be truncated from the right end if not needed. The 'Z' suffix indicates Universal Time ("zulu"). UT is recommended; local times must use local time zone offset specifier.
