		SDMX Structure Namespace Module
		The structure namespace module contains the descriptions of structural metadata such as key families, concepts, and codelists. For convenience, this module has been broken down into sub-modules for the different type of structural constructs.
	
	
	
		
			Structures contains constructs for all structural metadata components.
		
	
	
	
		
			StructuresType describes the structure of the container for all structural metadata components. The structural components may be explicitly detailed, or referenced from an external structure document or registry service. Best practices dictate that, at a minimum, any structural component that is referenced by another structural component be included by reference.

			MetadataStructuresType describes the structure of the metadata structure definitions container. It contains one or more metadata structure definition, which can be explicitly detailed or referenced from an external structure document or registry service.
		
		
			
				
					MetadataStructure provides the details of a metadata structure definition, which is defined as a collection of metadata concepts, their structure and usage when used to collect or disseminate reference metadata. A metadata structure definition performs several functions: it groups sets of objects into "targets" against which reference metadata may be reported. Targets define the structure of the reference metadata "keys" which identify specific types of reported metadata, and describe the valid values for populating the keys. Also, metadata structure definitions provide a presentational organization of concepts for reporting purposes. The structure of a reference metadata report is derived from this presentational structure.

			ProcessesType describes the structure of the processes container. It contains one or more process, which can be explicitly detailed or referenced from an external structure document or registry service.
		
		
			
				
					Process provides the details of a process, which is a scheme which defines or documents the operations performed on data in order to validate data or to derive new information according to a given set of rules. It is not meant to support process automation, but serves as a description of how processes occur. The primary use for this structural mechanism is the attachment of reference metadata regarding statistical processing. This must either contain the full details of the category scheme, or provide a name and identification information and reference the full details from an external structure document or registry service.
