ISBN
International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is an nine-digit number that uniquely identifies the book in which the legislative instrument was published.
NOTE: Periodical publilcations are issued in successive parts, usually having numerical or chronological designations and required that each serial publication can be uniquely identified. EXAMPLE: OJ Series in which INSPIRE Directive is published has been assigned the ISSN: 1725-2555
ISSN
The International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) is an eight-digit number that identifies the periodical publication in which the legislative instrument was published.
EXAMPLE 1: 2007/2/EC is the identification number for the INSPIRE Directive EXAMPLE 2: 2008/50/EC is the identification number for the CAFE Directive EXAMPLE 3: 2000/60/EC is the identification number for the Water Framework Directive
identification number
Code used to identify the legislative instrument
identifier
Unique identifier used to identify the spatial object within the specified identification scheme.
NOTE 1: Reporting requirements for different environmental legislation mandate that each spatial object is assigned an identifier conforming to specific lexical rules. NOTE 2: These rules are often inconsistent so a spatial object may be assigned multiple identifiers which are used for object referencing to link information to the spatial object.
identifier scheme
Identifier defining the scheme used to assign the identifier.
individual name
Name of the related person.
journal citation
Citation of the official journal in which the legislation is published.

Name of the resource.
NOTE: An official document number may be assigned to uniquely identify the legislative instrument. EXAMPLE: CELEX Number used to uniquely identify European Union Legislation
official document number
Official document number used to uniquely identify the legislative instrument.
EXAMPLE: Official Journal of European Union (OJEU), L108, Volume 50, 1-14

scaled number, expressed as decimal-space-UCUM code
UCUM Datatype - Datatype to encode measurements in a simple literal. Lexical space - Concatenation of the lexical form of an xsd:decimal, optionally followed by e or E and the lexical form of an xsd:integer, at least one space, and a unit expression constructed using The Unified Code for Units of Measure code system. Value space- The set of pairs (v, u) such that v is a real number and u is any unit with magnitude 1 regarding the base units of Section 4.2 of [UCUM]. Lexical-to-value mapping - The first part of the lexical form defines a number v = m × 10e where m is represented by the mandatory xsd:decimal and e is represented by the optional xsd:integer, or equal to 0 if omitted. The second part of the lexical form defines a unit u = r·b where r is the magnitude of u regarding the base units of Section 4.2 of [UCUM]. The lexical-to-value mapping maps the lexical form to the pair (v × r, b).
