Standard SPACE/XML is a standard with data elements and controlled vocabularies defining the working components. The idea for the structure comes from the fact that the XML schema is made from the data elements which do not change as frequently nor are updated as often as specific coding for business functions. For example if a publication offered a new size or position, then the change would be made in the vocabulary section of the standard not the data elements. Put another way, The schema is made up of data elements. Data elements are analogous to the floors of a building. If a change is made to the building it is rare to change the number of floors. The layout of offices on any one floor is often changed and can be changed without changing the building structure. The vocabularies are the equivalent of changing the layout of a floor plan. The following list is a alphabetical listing of data elements. The name of the element is displayed in bold type. A description of the element follows with a identification of the related data elements. The related data elements are listed as children or related subordinate elements.
May contain other recipient routing information in addition to organization and
person name, such as mailstop.
Contains one formatted address line with all its pieces in the proper place.
This includes all of the necessary punctuation.
The de-normalized form of the delivery address cannot be easily parsed.
May contain the name or number of the building, house and/or street.
Examples may include:
-Hancock Building
-5223 Oak Street
-213
-East 23rd Avenue
-P.O. Box 241
-Suite 200
Contains the remaining parts of the PersonName as defined by the FormalName and Scheme attributes. The areacode or city code within a CountryCode. To attach the actual binary file.
This element is defined as a string to handle 'numbers' such as 7A or 15/III.
The term 'BuildingNumber' was also used instread of HouseNumber so all types
of buildings could apply (house, building, warehouse, tower, etc.).
This may be used for verification, building the address, or storing in a database.
If the addrss is decomposed into StreetName, BuildingNumber and Unit,
do not use AddressLine to duplicate that part of the address information.
Example:
-Hancock Building
-5223

acknowledgement requirements.
Information regarding the details of a buy for advertising.
A container for Resource and TopicUse elements.
Resource elements map URNs to URLs and indicate default vocabularies which
apply to the formal names of certain elements within the subtree that begins with
the immediate parent of the Catalog element.
TopicUse elements indicate where in the SPACE/XML document certain Topics are used.
The optional Href attribute provides a pointer to a Catalog element elsewhere in this
or another document. Its value consists of a # character followed by the value of
the Duid attribute of the referenced Catalog element and preceded,
if the referenced Catalog is not in the current document,
by an http URL or a SPACE/XML URN identifying the document element
in which the Catalog appears.
If the Href attribute is present on a Catalog element,
then that element should be empty.
If it contains subelements, the SPACE/XML system may signal an error.

An indication that the parent Resource provides the default vocabulary that
determines the meanings and permitted values of the data occurring in a particular
part of a SPACE/XML document subtree.
The Context attribute is an XPath pattern identifying the data to which the default
vocabulary applies.
If the XPath pattern is one that matches elements, then it is the value of the
FormalName attribute of that element that is designated.
If the XPath pattern is one that matches attributes,
then it is the value of that attribute itself that is designated.
The optional Scheme attribute identifies the relevant naming scheme if the
Resource contains more than one naming scheme.
If the Resource is a SPACE/XML TopicSet, then the meaning of the data identified by
the Context is provided by the Topic whose FormalName subelement matches that data.
If the Resource is not a SPACE/XML TopicSet, then the way in which it is interpreted
in order to provide a meaning for the data is not defined by SPACE/XML but by the
authority that governs whatever format the Resource uses.

consisting of a set of further properties.
Value
=====
A string representation of the value of a Property.
ValueRef
========
A pointer to the value of the Property. This might be a Topic in a TopicSet,

This element provides information about a thing (Topic) named by a formal name
or occurring in a SPACE/XML element.
A Topic must have one or more TopicType subelements,
which state what type of Topic it is.
The optional Details attribute provides a pointer, in the form of a URL or URN,
to additional information about the Topic.

The value of the FormalName attribute is a formal name for the TopicSet.
Its meaning and permitted values are determined by a controlled vocabulary

A pointer to a TopicSet that is to be merged with the current one.
The TopicSet attribute is a pointer to the relevant TopicSet. Its value can be a
http URL, or a SPACE/XML URN as described in the comment to PublicIdentifier,
or a fragment identifier consisting of a # character followed by the Duid of a
TopicSet in the current document.
The presence of a TopicSetRef child in a TopicSet has the effect that all the
Topics in the referenced TopicSet are included by reference within the current
TopicSet.
When this merging results in there exising two FormalName grandchildren of the
same TopicSet that have the same content and the same Scheme attribute value,
then the Topics whose children are in fact the same topic, and are deemed to be merged.
The merging of Topics need not be performed physically by the system,
but the meaning of the data is exactly the same as if the merging were actually performed.
Merging two Topcis consists of creating a single Topic that contains all the
children of both, and eliminating duplicates.

Catalog applies.
If the Context attribute is not present, the TopicUse element simply states that
this topic is present somewhere in the subtree.
