  The DataStructureDefiniton is the class name for a structure definition for data. Some organisations know this type of definition as a “Key Family” and so the two names are synonymous. The term [[Data Structure Definition>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] (also referred to as [[DSD>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]]) is used in this specification.

  A //[[DataSet>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]// is a collection of a set of //Observation//s that share the same dimensionality, which is specified by a set of unique [[components>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] ([[Dimension>>doc:xwiki:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]], TimeDimension) defined in the DimensionDescriptor of the DataStructureDefinition, together with associated
