5.9.11 ISO 11179 Data Element Profile

5.9.11.1 Scope and Usage

This profile defines extensions that may be useful in exposing data elements from ISO 11179 -conformant registries. The list of extensions is not currently complete - additional extensions would be required to support all required and optional 11179 elements. The set of define extensions will increase over time based on implementer interest. At some point, a full profile for 11179-conformant systems may be developed.

The list of defined extensions is as follows:

  • objectClass - specifies the Object_Class for a Concept_Element or the meaning of a Data_Element
  • property - specifies the Object_Class Property for a Concept_Element or the meaning of a Data_Element
