registration process to store data definitions, characterized in a consistent manner, as determined according to the provisions of ISO 14817, used for a specific purpose (in this case ITS/TICS)

NOTE The data registration process provides a determination of the ITS Data Dictionary items accepted into the ITS/TICS Data Registry. The Data Registry contains not only data about data concepts in terms of their names and representational forms but also substantial data about the semantics or meaning associated with the data concepts. A Data Registry may contain data that assists information interchange and reuse, both from the perspective of human users and for machine-interpretation of data concepts. The Data Registry is comprised of items only from ITS/TICS Data Dictionaries, showing their source; however, not all ITS/TICS Data Dictionary items shall necessarily be submitted for inclusion, or accepted, into the Data Registry.
