1 Introduction

[All text is normative unless otherwise labeled]

This document describes common components and component types that can be reused across the suite of Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) standards. This document is intended for internal use by the Emergency Management Technical Committee and its subcommittees as they develop specific standards utilizing these types. The goal is to enable reuse of components which are commonly used in specifications and which have been designed based on lessons learned from the development of the Common Alert Protocol 1.1, the Distribution Element 1.0, Hospital Availability and Resource Messaging. The first use of these common components is intended to be in Situation Reports 1.0 and the Distribution Element 2.0. The components will be used and expanded as needed for future EDXL specifications.

1.1 Terminology

The key words “MUST”, “MUST NOT”, “REQUIRED”, “SHALL”, “SHALL NOT”, “SHOULD”, “SHOULD NOT”, “RECOMMENDED”, “MAY”, and “OPTIONAL” in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

2 Design Principles & Concepts (non-normative)

2.1 Design Philosophy

Below are some of the guiding principles of the EDXL CT Specification:

1. Provide a method to capture and reuse xml types and elements for representing persons and organizations which are commonly needed across multiple EDXL standards.

2. Provide flexible mechanisms to update the EDXL CT Specification efficiently, without slowing down the EDXL standards development process.

3. Allow for easy updates to capture fixes or improvements.

4. Ease the reuse and understanding of the basic data components and protocols, important for emergency management and common across multiple specifications.

5. Speed the development of EDXL Standards through reuse of common components and thereby improve information sharing and data exchange across the local, state, tribal, national and non-governmental organizations of different professions that provide emergency response and management services.

6. Support the integration of data elements from profiles which enables efficient and effective reuse of other important open standards.

2.2 Structural Summary

About multiplicity notation: “[l..h]” designates range from lower bound l to higher bound h, with both l and h Natural numbers, 0 ≤ l ≤ h, plus option “*” (unbounded) for h.

3.1.1 EDXL Common Simple Types

Type	EDXLDateTimeType
BaseType	Restricted xs:dateTime
Restriction	Pattern "\d\d\d\d-\d\d-\d\dT\d\d:\d\d:\d\d[-,+]\d\d:\d\d"
Usage	Use wherever you would otherwise use xs:dateTime
Definition	A restricted form of dateTime which requires the use of a timezone offset and thereby prohibits the use of “Z” without an offset. Also prohibited is the use fractional seconds.
Comments	1. The uniform requirement for a timezone offset provides greater reliability and robustness for emergency systems.
Schema Component	<xs:simpleType name=”EDXLDateTimeType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:dateTime"> <xs:pattern value="\d\d\d\d-\d\d-\d\dT\d\d:\d\d:\d\d[-,+]\d\d:\d\d"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType>
Used In	Top level type
Example	<DateTimeSent>2009-11-15T16:53:00-05:00</DateTimeSent>

Type	EDXLStringType
BaseType	Restricted xs:token
Restriction	minLength = 1, maxLength = 1023
Usage	Use wherever you would otherwise use xs:string
Definition	A restricted form of string which is limited to 1023 characters (and must be at least 1 character) in length
Comments	2. This common type provides a string type which is of long but limited length. Emergency systems shouldn't be required to manage indefinitely long string lengths. maxLength counts the maximum number of characters in the string. 3. This type does not exclude the use of the more general xs:string, but should be applied whenever length limitation is technically indicated, e.g. - to prevent circumvention of REQUIRED usage by supplying an empty string (length 0), or - for coding or transmission efficiency.
Schema Component	<xs:simpleType name="EDXLStringType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:token"> <xs:maxLength value="1023"/> <xs:minLength value="1"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType>
Used In	Top level type
Example	<SenderID>mary.thompson@myagency.gov</SenderID>

Type	PercentageType
BaseType	Restricted xs:float
Restriction	minInclusive=0, maxInclusive=100.0
Usage	Use wherever you need to use a percentage
Definition	A restricted form of unsigned floating number ranging from 0.0 to 100.0 inclusive intended to represent a percentage
Comments	4. Percentages are often used in emergency messages so this Percentage type facilitates a standardized format as opposed to ad hoc percentage formats.
Schema Component	<xs:simpleType name="PercentageType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:float"> <xs:minInclusive value="0"/> <xs:maxInclusive value="100.0"/> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType>
Used In	Top level type
Example	<Percentage>100<Percentage>

Type	ValueListURIType
BaseType	Restricted xs:anyURI
Restriction	None.
Usage	Used to denote the URI of a ValueList and related types
Definition	A URI referencing an externally-managed list of values.
Comments	5. A lesson learned from early EDXL specification development was the need to support lists of values that may vary depending on the jurisdiction or community. The ValueListType and related structures are based on the concept that the “list” of values can be maintained externally and referenced in the EDXL standards. The reference is handled by structures which include a ValueListURI providing a unique identifier for the external “list” and then followed by a value or values from that list. The reason “list” is quoted is because the external structure may be an ontology or other structure adopted by the jurisdiction or community rather than just a simple list.
Schema Component	<xs:simpleType name="ValueListURIType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:anyURI"/> </xs:simpleType>
Used In	Top level type
Examples

Type	ValueType
BaseType	Restricted xs:string
Restriction	None.
Usage	Used to denote the value(s) of a ValueList and related types
Definition	A string value from an externally-managed list of values referenced by a ValueListURI.
Comments	6. A lesson learned from early EDXL specification development was the need to support lists of values that may vary depending on the jurisdiction or community. The ValueListType and related structures are based on the concept that the “list” of values can be maintained externally and referenced in the EDXL standards. The reference is handled by structures which include a ValueListURI providing a unique identifier for the external “list” and then followed by a value or values from that “list”. The reason “list” is quoted is because the external structure may be an ontology or other structure adopted by the jurisdiction or community rather than just a simple list.
Schema Component	<xs:simpleType name="Value"> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"/> </xs:simpleType>

Examples	” Wildcat Canyon Mudslide” Disaster declared by MyCounty was initially declared by MyTownship as “Pleasant Creek Neighborhood Sinkhole.” Incident.

Type	EstimateType
BaseType	xs:boolean
Restriction	None.
Usage

3.1.3 EDXL Common Complex Types

Type	ValueListType
BaseType	xs:complexType
Restriction	None.
Usage	Use wherever a specification needs values from an externally managed list.
Definition	A ValueListType includes one ValueListURI element and one or more Value elements.
Comments	7. A lesson learned from early EDXL specification development was the need to support lists of values that may vary depending on the jurisdiction or community. The ValueListType and related structures are based on the concept that the “list” of values can be maintained externally and referenced in the EDXL standards. The reference is handled by structures which include a ValueListURI providing a unique identifier for the external “list” and then followed by a value or values from that “list”. The reason “list” is quoted is because the external structure may be an ontology or other structure adopted by the jurisdiction or community rather than just a simple list. 8. A lesson learned is that enumerated types provide a brittle, hard-to-change solution to a list of types which needs to satisfy the needs of many jurisdictions.
Schema Component	<xs:complexType name="ValueListType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="ct:ValueListURI" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/> <xs:element ref="ct:Value" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType>
Used In	Top level type

Type	ValueKeyType
BaseType	xs:complexType
Restriction	None.
Usage	Use wherever a specification needs one single value from an externally managed list.
Definition	A ValueKeyType includes one ValueListURI element and one and only one Value element.
Comments	9. A lesson learned from early EDXL specification development was the need to support lists of values that may vary depending on the jurisdiction or community. The ValueKeyType and related structures are based on the concept that the “list” of values can be maintained externally and referenced in the EDXL standards. The reference is handled by structures which include a ValueListURI providing a unique identifier for the external “list” and then followed by a value from that “list”. The reason “list” is quoted is because the external structure may be an ontology or other structure adopted by the jurisdiction or community rather than just a simple list. 10. A lesson learned is that enumerated types provide a brittle, hard-to-change solution to a list of types which needs to satisfy the needs of many jurisdictions. 11. A lesson learned is that from some kinds of lists only one value is appropriate and multiple values would be an error. In this case, use ValueKeyType instead of ValueListType.
Schema Component	<xs:complexType name="ValueKeyType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element ref="ct:ValueListURI" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/> <xs:element ref="ct:Value" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType>

3.1.4 EDXL Common Top Level Elements

Element	ValueListURI
Type	ct:ValueListURIType
Usage	Used to denote the URI of a ValueListType and related types
Definition	A URI referencing an externally-managed list of values.
Comments	17. A lesson learned from early EDXL specification development was the need to support lists of values that may vary depending on the jurisdiction or community. The ValueListType and related structures are based on the concept that the “list” of values can be maintained externally and referenced in the EDXL standards. The reference is handled by structures which include a ValueListURI providing a unique identifier for the external “list” and then followed by a value or values from that list. The reason “list” is quoted is because the external structure may be an ontology or other structure adopted by the jurisdiction or community rather than just a simple list.
