Description: The fundamental geometric description for any dataset that models geography. GeoBndBox is the minimum box, defined by west and east longitudes and north and south latitudes, that includes the largest geographic extent of the dataset's geographic coverage. This element is used in the first pass of a coordinate-based search. If the boundPoly element is included, then the geoBndBox element MUST be included.
Example(s):
<geogCover>Nevada State</geogCover>
<geoBndBox>
<westBL>-120.005729004</westBL>
<eastBL>-114.039663</eastBL>
<southBL>35.00208499998</southBL>
<northBL>42.002207</northBL>
</geoBndBox>
<geogCover>Norway</geogCover>
<geoBndBox>
<westBL>4.789583</westBL>
<eastBL>33.637497</eastBL>
<southBL>57.987915</southBL>
<northBL>80.76416</northBL>
</geoBndBox>
Description: The westernmost coordinate delimiting the geographic extent of the dataset. A valid range of values, expressed in decimal degrees (positive east and positive north), is: -180,0 <= West Bounding Longitude Value <= 180,0
Description: The easternmost coordinate delimiting the geographic extent of the dataset. A valid range of values, expressed in decimal degrees (positive east and positive north), is: -180,0 <= East Bounding Longitude Value <= 180,0
Description: The southernmost coordinate delimiting the geographic extent of the dataset. A valid range of values, expressed in decimal degrees (positive east and positive north), is: -90,0 <= South Bounding Latitude Value <= 90,0 ; South Bounding Latitude Value <= North Bounding Latitude Value
Description: The northernmost coordinate delimiting the geographic extent of the dataset. A valid range of values, expressed in decimal degrees (positive east and positive north), is: -90,0 <= North Bounding Latitude Value <= 90,0 ; North Bounding Latitude Value = South Bounding Latitude Value
Description:
This field allows the creation of multiple polygons to describe in a more detailed manner the geographic area covered by the dataset. It should only be used to define the outer boundaries of a covered area. For example, in the United States, such polygons can be created to define boundaries for Hawaii, Alaska, and the continental United States, but not interior boundaries for the contiguous states. This field is used to refine a coordinate-based search, not to actually map an area.
If the boundPoly element is used, then geoBndBox MUST be present, and all points enclosed by the boundPoly MUST be contained within the geoBndBox. Elements westBL, eastBL, southBL, and northBL of the geoBndBox should each be represented in at least one point of the boundPoly description.

Description: The group of persons or other elements that are the object of research and to which any analytic results refer. Age, nationality, and residence commonly help to delineate a given universe, but any of a number of factors may be involved, such as sex, race, income, veteran status, criminal convictions, etc. The universe may consist of elements other than persons, such as housing units, court cases, deaths, countries, etc. In general, it should be possible to tell from the description of the universe whether a given individual or element (hypothetical or real) is a member of the population under study. A "level" attribute is included to permit coding of the level to which universe applies, i.e., the study level, the file level (if different from study), the record group, the variable group, the nCube group, the variable, or the nCube level. The "clusion" attribute provides for specification of groups included (I) in or excluded (E) from the universe. If all the variables/nCubes described in the data documentation relate to the same population, e.g., the same set of survey respondents, this element would be unnecessary at data description level. In this case, universe can be fully described at the study level.
Example(s):
<universe clusion="I">Individuals 15-19 years of age. </universe> <universe clusion="E">Individuals younger than 15 and older than 19 years of age.</universe>

Description: Information indicating correspondence as well as discrepancies between the sampled units (obtained) and available statistics for the population (age, sex-ratio, marital status, etc.) as a whole.
Example(s):
<deviat>The suitability of Ohio as a research site reflected its similarity to the United States as a whole. The evidence extended by Tuchfarber (1988) shows that Ohio is representative of the United States in several ways: percent urban and rural, percent of the population that is African American, median age, per capita income, percent living below the poverty level, and unemployment rate. Although results generated from an Ohio sample are not empirically generalizable to the United States, they may be suggestive of what might be expected nationally.</deviat>

Description: The use of sampling procedures may make it necessary to apply weights to produce accurate statistical results. Describe here the criteria for using weights in analysis of a collection. If a weighting formula or coefficient was developed, provide this formula, define its elements, and indicate how the formula is applied to data.
Example(s):
<weight>The 1996 NES dataset includes two final person-level analysis weights which incorporate sampling, nonresponse, and post-stratification factors. One weight (variable #4) is for longitudinal micro-level analysis using the 1996 NES Panel. The other weight (variable #3) is for analysis of the 1996 NES combined sample (Panel component cases plus Cross-section supplement cases). In addition, a Time Series Weight (variable #5) which corrects for Panel attrition was constructed. This weight should be used in analyses which compare the 1996 NES to earlier unweighted National Election Study data collections.</weight>
Description: Methods used to "clean" the data collection, e.g., consistency checking, wildcode checking, etc. The "agency" attribute permits specification of the agency doing the data cleaning.

Description: Information on data appraisal.
Description: The percentage of sample members who provided information.
Example(s):
<respRate>For 1993, the estimated inclusion rate for TEDS-eligible providers was 91 percent,
with the inclusion rate for all treatment providers estimated at 76 percent (including privately and
publicly funded providers).</respRate>
<respRate>The overall response rate was 82%, although retail firms with an annual sales volume of more
than $5,000,000 were somewhat less likely to respond.</respRate>
Description: Measure of how precisely one can estimate a population value from a given sample.
Example(s):
<EstSmpErr> To assist NES analysts, the PC SUDAAN program was used to compute sampling errors for a wide-ranging example set of proportions estimated from the 1996 NES Pre-election Survey dataset. For each estimate, sampling errors were computed for the total sample and for twenty demographic and political affiliation subclasses of the 1996 NES Pre-election Survey sample. The results of these sampling error computations were then summarized and translated into the general usage sampling error table provided in Table 11. The mean value of deft, the square root of the design effect, was found to be 1.346. The design effect was primarily due to weighting effects (Kish, 1965) and did not vary significantly by subclass size. Therefore the generalized variance table is produced by multiplying the simple random sampling standard error for each proportion and sample size by the average deft for the set of sampling error computations.</EstSmpErr>
Description: Other issues pertaining to data appraisal. Describe here issues such as response variance, nonresponse rate and testing for bias, interviewer and response bias, confidence levels, question bias, etc.
Example(s):
<dataAppr>These data files were obtained from the United States House of Representatives, who received them from the Census Bureau accompanied by the following caveats: "The numbers contained herein are not official 1990 decennial Census counts. The numbers represent estimates of the population based on a statistical adjustment method applied to the official 1990 Census figures using a sample survey intended to measure overcount or undercount in the Census results. On July 15, 1991, the Secretary of Commerce decided not to adjust the official 1990 decennial Census counts (see 56 Fed. Reg. 33582, July 22, 1991). In reaching his decision, the Secretary determined that there was not sufficient evidence that the adjustment method accurately distributed the population across and within states. The numbers contained in these tapes, which had to be produced prior to the Secretary's decision, are now known to be biased. Moreover, the tapes do not satisfy standards for the publication of Federal statistics, as established in Statistical Policy Directive No. 2, 1978, Office of Federal Statistical Policy and Standards. Accordingly, the Department of Commerce deems that these numbers cannot be used for any purpose that legally requires use of data from the decennial Census and assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the data for any purpose whatsoever. The Department will provide no assistance in interpretation or use of these numbers."</dataApp>
