Field Detail

DIRECT_INTERNAL

@UML(identifier="directInternal",
     obligation=CONDITIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19115)
public static final EvaluationMethodType DIRECT_INTERNAL
Method of evaluating the quality of a dataset based on inspection of items within the dataset, where all data required is internal to the dataset being evaluated.


DIRECT_EXTERNAL

@UML(identifier="directExternal",
     obligation=CONDITIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19115)
public static final EvaluationMethodType DIRECT_EXTERNAL
Method of evaluating the quality of a dataset based on inspection of items within the dataset, where reference data external to the dataset being evaluated is required.


INDIRECT

@UML(identifier="indirect",
     obligation=CONDITIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19115)
public static final EvaluationMethodType INDIRECT
Method of evaluating the quality of a dataset based on external knowledge.

Method Detail

values

public static EvaluationMethodType[] values()
Returns the list of EvaluationMethodTypes.

Returns:
The list of codes declared in the current JVM.

family

public EvaluationMethodType[] family()
Returns the list of codes of the same kind than this code list element. Invoking this method is equivalent to invoking values(), except that this method can be invoked on an instance of the parent CodeList class.

Specified by:
family in class CodeList<EvaluationMethodType>
Returns:
The codes of the same kind than this code.

valueOf

public static EvaluationMethodType valueOf(String code)
Returns the evaluation method type that matches the given string, or returns a new one if none match it. More specifically, this methods returns the first instance for which name().equals(code) returns true. If no existing instance is found, then a new one is created for the given name.

Parameters:
code - The name of the code to fetch or to create.
Returns:
A code matching the given name.
