The use of these roles is to enable applications to process the data in a meaningful way (e.g. relating a dimension value to a mapping vector). It is expected that communities (such as the official statistics community) will harmonise these roles with their community so that data can be exchanged and shared in a meaningful way in the community.

--There may be a maximum of one MeasureDimension specified in the DimensionDescriptor. The purpose of a MeasureDimension is to specify formally the meaning of the measures (because the PrimaryMeasure typically has a generic meaning e.g. observation value) and to enable multiple measures to be defined and reported in a StructureSpecificDataSet. Note that the MeasureDimension references a ConceptScheme as its Representation (see later) whereas a Dimension can have either an enumerated (Codelist) or non-enumerated (Facet) representation. For a MeasureDimension the Concepts in the ConceptScheme comprise the list of allowable measures. This enables the representation for each individual measure (Concept) to be declared as the coreRepresentation of the Concept, thus overriding the Representation specified for the PrimaryMeasure for the observation value of this MeasureDimension Concept.
