Country u-forms
Consider, for example, the u-form for Trinidad and Tobago, which includes the following UUID, attributes and values.
(The complete u-form for Trinidad and Tobago can be viewed ![[WWW]](/wiki/classic/img/moin-www.png){kind=small}
here.)
| UUID: ~01a7c66766786311d79a4611d0198c3fee | |
| name: | TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO |
| iso_code: | TT |
| child_subdivision_name | County |
| latitude: | 11.0 |
| longitude: | -61.0 |
| population | 1163724 |
| population_date | MAYA.VIA.vsmf.Date._( '2002-07-01' ) |
To a human who can read and interpret the words on this page, many of these attributes and values make plenty of intuitive sense. You know what a name is, you know what a country is. Population is obvious, and even the population_date can be read fairly easily (the MAYA.VIA.vsmf.Date tells the system that the date is being read according to the Visage Standard Message Format (see VSMF). Even if you can't remember how latitiude and longitude are measured, you're probably aware on some level that these numbers can be used to decide where to put Trinidad and Tobago on a map, and to work out how far Trinidad and Tobago is from other countries. The attribute child_subdivision_name refers to the administrative units directly below country in the hierarchy of places. Not only countries, but counties, states, departments and many other territorial divisions have 'child' (i.e. smaller dependent) subdivisions of this sort.
