Specification Guide

Overview

SectorIndustries is an aggregation container that holds one or more SectorIndustry child elements, grouping the sector and industry classifications that describe an organization's areas of research expertise. It exists to organize industry-based expertise declarations under a single structural node within an Expertise block, supporting standardized sector classification schemes.

Usage

Use SectorIndustries as a child of Expertise when an organization wishes to declare expertise across one or more sectors or industries. The container must hold at least one SectorIndustry child, and multiple instances are permitted to express expertise across several sectors. The element itself carries no attributes — all classification detail (scheme, code, level, etc.) is conveyed by the individual SectorIndustry children. By grouping these classifications, SectorIndustries enables consumers to discover publishers and content matched to specific industry coverage needs.

Rules

  • MUSTSectorIndustries must contain at least one SectorIndustry child element; multiple occurrences are permitted.[RIXML Research Data Dictionary v2.4 p.28]
