Annotation

 

 

 Object  Group      Definition Explanatory Text
AnnotationBase-PackageConstruct that contains user or organisation-specific metadata.

The annotation construct in SDMX is available to most of the SDMX structural metadata artefacts.This facility is essentially a flexible extension mechanism allowing metadata to be added to SDMX structural metadata or to a data set. Note that whilst the SDMX annotation has a specific structure (Title, Type, URL, Text) individual organisations are free to use these in any way and any combination they wish. An Annotation can only be processed in a meaningful way (i.e. other than viewing it) by systems that understand the semantic of the Annotation.
