DATA ELEMENT WITH FIXED VALUES

Identifier relatedZoneIdentifierScheme
Short name rZoneIdSch
RegistrationStatus Released 09 July 2019
Reference URL http://dd.eionet.europa.eu/dataelements/latest/relatedZoneIdentifierScheme
Name Related zone - identifier scheme
Definition Identifier defining the scheme used to assign the related zone identifier.
Methodology for obtaining data This value is required, and its value depends on the type of "relatedZoneIdentifier" value.

In the SubUnit or the GroundWaterBody spatial data set:

Use the value 'euRBDCode', if the "relatedZoneIdentifier" value is a WFD river basin district identifier.
Use the value 'eionetRBDCode', for any other river basin district identifier reported under an EIONET data flow.

In the SurfaceWaterBody or the SurfaceWaterBodyLine spatial data set:

Use the value 'euSubUnitCode', if the "relatedZoneIdentifier" value is a WFD sub-unit identifier.
Use the value 'eionetSubUnitCode', for any other sub-unit identifier reported under an EIONET data flow.

In the ProtectedArea, the ProtectedAreaLine or the ProtectedAreaPoint spatial data set, the related zone is an optional element. The protected area can be related to a surface water body (use euSurfaceWaterBodyCode or eionetSurfaceWaterBodyCode) or to a groundwater body (use euGroundWaterBodyCode or eionetGroundWaterBodyCode).
If the protected area is not related to a water body, provide the river basin district (euRBDCode or eionetRBDCode).

Please refer to the WISE GIS Guidance for further information.
