Category AUDIT_DATASET
Name:'AUDIT_DATASET'
Parent category:
AUDIT
Definition:
The AUDIT_DATASET category contains data items used for linking data
blocks to aid in grouping blocks which contain information that is
interrelated.
Data blocks which should be interpreted together are identified with the
same unique _audit_dataset.id.
Examples:
Four data blocks for a powder diffraction experiment.
By the presence of an identical _audit_dataset.id value, it is made
clear that all four data blocks are to be interpreted together as
a whole. It is clear that there are two crystal structures, one
diffractogram, and a block containing other experimental information.
These blocks may be contained in the same file, or many files, but
the presence of an _audit_dataset.id value removes doubt as to their
relationship to each other.

Four data blocks for a powder diffraction experiment.
The absence of an _audit_dataset.id value does not preclude
interpreting these data blocks together. The
consumer of the information may be able to infer that they belong
together due to contextual information.

Three data blocks for a powder diffraction experiment.
The identical _audit_dataset.id value makes it
clear that all data blocks are to be interpreted together as
a whole. The presence of multiple _audit_dataset.id values for the
second data block indicates it is included in more than one data set.
Because they have different
_audit_dataset.id values, the diffractogram _pd_diffractogram.id
"First data set" in the first example is different from the
diffractogram _pd_diffractogram.id "First data set" in this example.
