Attributes

@code

@vocabulary-uri

The URI where this vocabulary is defined. If the vocabulary is 99 (reporting organisation), the URI where this internal vocabulary is defined. While this is an optional field it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that all publishers use it to ensure that the meaning of their codes are fully understood by data users.

Example Usage

Example of reference in the context of a result element.

This example declares use of @vocabulary 99, with a @code of B1. The @vocabulary-uri attribute should also be used:
<reference vocabulary="99" code="B1" vocabulary-uri="http://example.com/indicators.html" />
The reference element can be repeated in any result. If the reference element is reported at result level it must not be reported at indicator level:
   <reference vocabulary="99" code="B1" vocabulary-uri="http://example.com/indicators.html" />
