Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field	Description
static final EvaluationMethodType	DIRECT_EXTERNAL	Method of evaluating the quality of a data set based on inspection of items within the data set, where reference data external to the data set being evaluated is required.
static final EvaluationMethodType	DIRECT_INTERNAL	Method of evaluating the quality of a data set based on inspection of items within the data set, where all data required is internal to the data set being evaluated.
static final EvaluationMethodType	INDIRECT	Method of evaluating the quality of a data set based on external knowledge.

Field Details

DIRECT_INTERNAL

@UML(identifier="directInternal",
     obligation=CONDITIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19157)
public static final EvaluationMethodType DIRECT_INTERNAL

Method of evaluating the quality of a data set based on inspection of items within the data set, where all data required is internal to the data set being evaluated.

DIRECT_EXTERNAL

@UML(identifier="directExternal",
     obligation=CONDITIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19157)
public static final EvaluationMethodType DIRECT_EXTERNAL

Method of evaluating the quality of a data set based on inspection of items within the data set, where reference data external to the data set being evaluated is required.

INDIRECT

@UML(identifier="indirect",
     obligation=CONDITIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19157)
public static final EvaluationMethodType INDIRECT

Method of evaluating the quality of a data set based on external knowledge.

Method Details

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 interface ControlledVocabulary

Specified by:

family in class CodeList<EvaluationMethodType>

Returns:

all code values for this code list.

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.
