Febr. 2017 - Introduction of a new search authority: XV = Vi

Post by EPO / Patent Data Services » Mon May 22, 2017 1:45 pm

The new DOCDB schema release has been triggered by the introduction of a new search authority: XV = Visegrad Patent Institute

The enumeration list of simpleType “countryType” has been extended with an additional value.

This extension will have no impact on the actual structure of the schema – the extension of the enumeration-list should in theory be transparent.

Code: Select all

<simpleType name="countryType">

                        <annotation>

                                    <documentation>

                Country names and codes taken from WIPO ST.3 and ISO 3166.sssssssssssssss

                From IETF RFC 1766:

                "NOTE: The ISO 639/ISO 3166 convention is that language names are

                written in lower case, while country codes are written in upper case."
