Validation

The implementation of validation of indicator class.

Some data can become indicator class if they are validated as member of this indicator class. Basic validation is done through the restriction element, however for more complex validation you can use the functional validation.


Semantics

Abstract REQUIRED

The summary description of the validation.

Fill in the short and self-explanatory summary of the validation procedure.

Commentary

Unspecified comment - other relevant information.

Enter important objective information about the validation procedure if necessary for the understanding. Do not enter your personal comments (use the REVIEW entity instead).

Input data REQUIRED

The description the data allowed on the validation input

Input data for the validation - you may reference them.

Limits

Fill in if there are any known limits limiting the use of this validation.

Validation URL MULTIPLE

The URL of the validation or interpreter (in the case it is not accessible through the registry).

If this service is accessible only through the registry, use the Validation URN metadata piece instead.

LUA source code

The source code for validation defined in LUA language.

For clues how to write the LUA functions, see the examples.

Number/Unit Validation

The source code for the simple validation method called Number/Unit (validates number with known unit).

For simple validation recipe for body height, see example.
