Known Usage Locations
Annotation
Structures information that is necessary to compare two objects of a specific type. Contains the mapping(s) that inform comparisons and facilitate automation. Note that all maps are pairwise, identifying two schemes and the correlation between two items in those schemes. By using a set of pairwise comparisons, it is possible to describe more complex correspondences - pairwise comparisons are easier to process. In addition to providing a standard name, label, and description of the set of comparison maps, currently covers the comparison of concepts, variables, questions, categories, codes, and universes.

Content Element Detail (all declarations; defined within this component only; 9/22)
CategoryMap
Type:
GenericMapType, complex content
Maps the content of two different category schemes of objects of the same type providing detail for the comparable items within those two schemes.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="CategoryMap"/>

CodeMap
Type:
CodeMapType, complex content
Maps the codes from two different CodeLists or from a delineation to a CodeList providing detail for the comparable items within those two schemes.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="CodeMap"/>

ComparisonName
Type:
r:NameType, complex content
A name for the comparison. May be expressed in multiple languages. Repeat the element to express names with different content, for example different names for different systems.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="ComparisonName"/>

ConceptMap
Type:
GenericMapType, complex content
Maps the content of two different concept schemes of objects of the same type providing detail for the comparable items within those two schemes.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="ConceptMap"/>

QuestionMap
Type:
GenericMapType, complex content
Maps the content of two different question schemes of objects of the same type providing detail for the comparable items within those two schemes.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="QuestionMap"/>

r:Description
Type:
r:StructuredStringType, complex content
A description of the content and purpose of the comparison. May be expressed in multiple languages and supports the use of structured content.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element minOccurs="0" ref="r:Description"/>

r:Label
Type:
r:LabelType, complex content
A display label for the comparison. May be expressed in multiple languages. Repeat for labels with different content, for example, labels with differing length limitations.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="r:Label"/>

UniverseMap
Type:
GenericMapType, complex content
Maps the content of two different universe schemes of objects of the same type providing detail for the comparable items within those two schemes.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="UniverseMap"/>

VariableMap
Type:
GenericMapType, complex content
Maps the content of two different variable schemes of objects of the same type providing detail for the comparable items within those two schemes.
