A term from a controlled vocabulary.
Interoperability between data sets is increased dramatically when terms from controlled vocabularies are used in favour of free text. The conceptual Code data type is used wherever one or more controlled vocabularies are known to exist for a particular domain of interest. It is not the job of Core Vocabularies to mandate which controlled vocabularies are used but we offer some guidance on how to use them.
