category-attribute-description

schema/components/category-attribute-description/1.0.1/category-attribute-description.schema.json

The category-attribute-description component provides general metadata for a categorical attribute:

  • discipline — The scientific discipline.
  • type — The type of categorisation.
  • extensions — An optional map for application-specific metadata.
  • tags — An optional list of tags.

This is the categorical counterpart to attribute-description, without unit and scale fields (which are not meaningful for categories).

Used by: base-category-attribute, bool-attribute, category-attribute, category-ensemble, category-time-series.
