Configuration-based type setup

A <type> element defines a Geo-Object Type or a group. It goes inside an <organization> element.

Attribute	Description
code, label, description	The type's code, label and description.
visibility	PUBLIC or PRIVATE.
geometryType	POINT, LINE, POLYGON or MIXED.
isGeometryEditable	Whether geometries can be edited with the web-based editing tools.
isGroup	true to create a group. Each <group-item> inside it creates a Geo-Object Type in the group.
conceptSet, startDate, endDate, rootTerm	Adds a classification to the type, using the Concept Set with this code. See Concept Sets.

Attribute XSD definition

Put attributes inside an <attributes> element. The same attribute elements are used for Business Types and Concept Classes.

<xs:complexType name="attributes">
  <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
    <xs:element name="text" type="text" />
    <xs:element name="boolean" type="boolean" />
    <xs:element name="integer" type="integer" />
    <xs:element name="decimal" type="decimal" />
    <xs:element name="date" type="date" />
    <xs:element name="term" type="term" />
  </xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>

<!-- Common attributes of all attributes -->
<xs:attributeGroup name="attribute">
  <xs:attribute name="code" type="xs:string" use="required" />
  <xs:attribute name="label" type="xs:string" />
  <xs:attribute name="description" type="xs:string" />
</xs:attributeGroup>

<xs:attributeGroup name="attributeDec">
  <xs:attributeGroup ref="attribute" />
  <xs:attribute name="precision" type="xs:integer" />
  <xs:attribute name="scale" type="xs:integer" />
</xs:attributeGroup>

<xs:complexType name="text">
  <xs:attributeGroup ref="attribute" />
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="boolean">
  <xs:attributeGroup ref="attribute" />
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="integer">
  <xs:attributeGroup ref="attribute" />
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="decimal">
  <xs:attributeGroup ref="attributeDec" />
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="date">
  <xs:attributeGroup ref="attribute" />
</xs:complexType>

The schema still includes a term attribute type with option elements, but term attributes aren't imported in this version. Use a Concept Set classification instead.

Example

<type
    code="Health_facility"
    label="Health facility (MOH)"
    description="Public health facilities under the management of the Ministry of Health"
    visibility="PUBLIC"
    geometryType="POINT"
    isGeometryEditable="true"
    isGroup="true">
  <attributes>
    <text code="PHONE" label="Phone number" />
    <integer code="NUMBER_OF_BEDS" label="Number of beds" />
    <decimal code="ANNUAL_BUDGET" label="Annual budget" precision="12" scale="2" />
    <date code="OPENING_DATE" label="Opening date" />
    <boolean code="HAS_ELECTRICITY" label="Has electricity" />
  </attributes>
  <group-item code="National_hospital" label="National hospital (MOH)" />
  <group-item code="Health_centre" label="Health centre (MOH)" />
  <group-item code="Health_post" label="Health post (MOH)" />
</type>
