module

data concept that contains the formal syntactic definition, and optionally the semantic definition, of a defined set of other data concepts that are all version-controlled as a single unit; a module can be represented in multiple languages (e.g., ASN.1 or XML Schema) and compiled by computer systems

multiple carriageway road segment; multiple carriageway road; multiple carriageway

roadway comprised of more than two carriageways
NOTE 1 to entry: The PIARC term is “multiple carriageway road” and is recognized as a preferred term. As per the definitions provided in this document, “dual carriageway road segment”3.1.8) is more accurate and is the most preferred term. The term “dual carriageway” by itself is not preferred but admitted.

The term “dual carriageway” by itself is not preferred but admitted.
NOTE 2 to entry: The separate carriageways are typically designed for separate traffic for (often multiple) specific operational reasons, such as direction of travel, category of vehicle (e.g. high occupancy vehicle), local versus through travel, etc.

namespace

set of unique identifiers
NOTE 1 to entry: Namespace is a mechanism to resolve naming conflicts between elements in an XML document when each comes from a different vocabulary. It allows the commingling of like tag names from different namespaces. A namespace identifies an XML vocabulary defined within a URN. An attribute on an element, attribute, or entity reference associates a short name…

set of unique identifiers
NOTE 1 to entry: Namespace is a mechanism to resolve naming conflicts between elements in an XML document when each comes from a different vocabulary. It allows the commingling of like tag names from different namespaces. A namespace identifies an XML vocabulary defined within a URN. An attribute on an element, attribute, or entity reference associates a short name with the URN that defines the namespace; that short name is then used as a prefix to the element, attribute, or entity reference name to uniquely identify the namespace.
Namespace references have scope. All child nodes beneath the node that specifies the namespace inherit that namespace. This allows nonqualified names to use the default namespace.

nested object class

object class that represents a logical group of data elements and data frames that describe some aspect of the larger object class by which the nested object class is contained
NOTE 1 to entry: Nested object classes are used to describe object classes that are contained within another object class and are used for conceptual objects rather than tangible objects.
EXAMPLE: A message sign…

NOTE 1 to entry: Nested object classes are used to describe object classes that are contained within another object class and are used for conceptual objects rather than tangible objects.
EXAMPLE: A message sign object class might have a nested object class for the messages stored in its library, where each message is described by a number of properties, such as message number, message content, message owner, etc.

node

zero-dimensional element that is a topological junction of two or more edges, or an end point of an edge
NOTE: A node is created for topologically significant points, such as simple intersections of roads or other linear features including boundaries but also for locations such as electric beacons, kilometre-posts or sensors detecting traffic flows, being significant points specified in a map.

node; road network node

component of a road model representing a point location of the road network graph
NOTE 1 to entry: The point location typically represents a point along the road which can be used to designate the location of a junction, public transport stop, jurisdictional boundary, termination point, etc.
