Definition of elements common to a number of NeuroML files. A 3D point with optional diameter. Note: the units for these values will be specified in the file in which the element is used, e.g. in a MorphML file with <b>length_units="micrometer"</b> in the morphml element. Assume micrometer if no other units are given. A 3D point with no diameter. Note: the units for these values will be specified in the file in which the element is used, e.g. in a MorphML file with <b>length_units="micrometer"</b> in the morphml element. Assume micrometer if no other units are given. A collection of points. A spherical structure such as a cell body or cell. Diameter of sphere is obtained from center Point. A Rectangular Box for locating cells in 3D. Location of vertex with lowest x, y, z coords. Size of box. Note if width, height or depth is zero, implies a lower dimension box, e.g. 2D plane. Specifies a grid of up to 3 dimensions, without any explicit 3D location information. A surface. A closed structure represented by a list of points where the first point connects with the last point. A 3d surface to represent the cell body or histological structure. Collection of polygons defining the polyhedron. Concise processing directives for downstream applications. Enumeration of length units. Used in MorphML Level 1 files, where length is the only important dimension. Note: micrometer is preferred to micron from v1.8.1 Note: micrometer is preferred to micron from v1.8.1 Note: micrometer is preferred to micron from v1.8.1 Enumeration of volume units. Id of individual segment in a cell (integer 0 or greater). Placed in Metadata, as it's used across Levels Textual human readable notes related to the element in question. It's useful to put these into the NeuroML files instead of XML comments, as the notes can be extracted and repeated in the files to which the NeuroML is mapped. Allows elements to be associated, such as for grouping segments or cables into the basal arbor. A Tag/Value/Type tuple. Note prior to v1.7.1, tag and value were sub elements. The attribute option is now preferred. A collection of Properties Metadata for each Property. Metadata for each Group. General metadata which can be applied to a number of elements String with only yes or no allowed Double restricted to between 1 and 0 Double restricted to between 0 and 100 Double restricted to 0 or greater Double restricted greater than 0 Enumeration of unit scheme used. Only SI or Physiological units allowed Milisecond, millivolt, centimeter, etc Second, volt, meter, etc. General metadata about references for the model. Note: This element will possibly change when a new set of schema files is adopted for adding references, authors, citations, etc. A reference to an entity in NeuroMorpho.org Note: This element will possibly change when a new set of schema files is adopted for adding references, authors, citations, etc. See mailing lists for latest status Comment on how this morphology relates to the current model A reference to an entity in NeuronDB Note: This element will possibly change when a new set of schema files is adopted for adding references, authors, citations, etc. See mailing lists for latest status Comment on how this neuron relates to the current model A reference to an entity in ModelDB Note: This element will possibly change when a new set of schema files is adopted for adding references, authors, citations, etc. See mailing lists for latest status Comment on how this model relates to the current model in NeuroML A reference to a publication Note: This element will possibly change when a new set of schema files is adopted for adding references, authors, citations, etc. See mailing lists for latest status A reasonably complete reference to the paper, etc. including journal, authors, issue, year. Mainly for quick recognition of the paper. The PubMed ref should contain the unique ID. URL of paper in PubMed (starting with http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) Comment on how this publication relates to the current model A reference to an author Note: This element will possibly change when a new set of schema files is adopted for adding references, authors, citations, etc. See mailing lists for latest status Author of the original model Person who translated the model to NeuroML A generic reference to a person, for authorship, etc Useful to have. Note: something like '- at -' replacing the @ might be wise, in case a HTML version of the file goes online. Optional comment on their specific contribution Status enum for stability state of files. This is subject to change. File can be used with reasonable confidence File can be used with caution, bearing in mind any comments present File can be assumed to be erroneous and shouldn't be used File uses constructs which have been superceded in current version of specification Status element giving the stability state of files and some extra comments. A comment on the current status. Not necessarily signalling a problem. An issue which need addressing Who added the comments? Currently an enum value of status/in progress/etc.
