Correspondence Table

Concepts

A Correspondence Table expresses the relationship between two Statistical Classifications. These are typically: two versions from the same Classification Series; Statistical Classifications from different Classification Series; a variant and the version on which it is based; or, different versions of a variant. In the first and last examples, the Correspondence Table facilitates comparability over time. Correspondence relationships are shown in both directions.

A Statistical Classification is a subtype of Node Set. The relationship between Statistical Classification and Correspondence Table can also be extended to include the other Node Sets - Code List and Category Set.

Source LevelThe correspondence is normally restricted to a certain Level in the source Statistical Classification. In this case, target items are assigned only to source items on the given level. If no level is indicated, target items can be assigned to any level of the source Statistical Classification.0..1 String
Target LevelThe correspondence is normally restricted to a certain Level in the target Statistical Classification. In this case, source items are assigned only to target items on the given level.
