DITA maps enable the scalable reuse of content across multiple contexts. They can be used by information architects, writers, and publishers to plan, develop, and deliver content.
DITA maps support the following uses:
@collection-type
attribute is set. On output, these relationships
might be expressed as related links or the hierarchy of a table of contents (TOC).<topicref>
elements or
specializations of <topicref>
elements, such as
<keydef>
. The <keydef>
element is a convenience
element; it is a specialized type of a <topicref>
element with the
following attributes:@keys
attribute@processing-role
attribute with a default value of
"resource-only".@keyref
or
@conkeyref
attribute. Elements within a map
structure that specify a @keyscope
attribute create a new context for key
reference resolution. Key references within such elements are resolved against the set of
effective key definitions for that scope.Specialized maps can provide additional semantics beyond those of organization, linking, and indirection. For example, the subjectScheme map specialization adds the semantics of taxonomy and ontology definition.
