Identification scheme
 | This article relies on a single source. (August 2025) |
In metadata, an identification scheme[1] is used to identify unique records in a set. If a data element is used to identify a record within a data set, the data element uses the Identifier representation term. An identification scheme should be contrasted with a classification scheme. Classification schemes are used to classify individual records into categories. Many records in a data set may be in a single category.
