| Attribute | Definition | Type | Voidability |
|---|---|---|---|
| startComparison | The comparator used for the lower range limit (e.g. greaterThanOrEqualTo). | ComparisonOperatorValue | |
| rangeStart | The lower limit of the range. | Real | |
| endComparison | The comparator used for the upper range limit (e.g. lessThan). | ComparisonOperatorValue | |

|---|---|---|---|
| value | The numerical value of the property that is constrained. | Real | |
| comparison | The comparator to be used in the constraint e.g. greaterThan. | ComparisonOperatorValue | |
| uom | Units of measure used in the constraint. | UnitOfMeasure |
A constraint which is not modelled in a structured way but may be described using the freetext ‘ description ’ attribute.
This type is a sub-type of Constraint.
| Attribute | Definition | Type | Voidability |
|---|---|---|---|
| description | A description of the constraint. | CharacterString |
