The BuildingSync XML (BSync) schema has several identifiers for buildings shown below. The purpose of this proposal would be to add UBID as an enumeration.
<xs:element name="IdentifierLabel">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Identifier used in a specific program or dataset. There can be multiple instances of Identifier Types within a dataset, such as a Listing ID, a Tax Map Number ID, and a Custom ID.</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:enumeration value="Premises"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Listing"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Name"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Portfolio Manager Property ID"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Portfolio Manager Standard"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Federal real property"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Tax book number"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Tax map number"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Assessor parcel number"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Tax parcel letter"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Custom"/>
<xs:enumeration value="Other"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:element>
The UBID is becoming the defacto standard for defining the location of a building/facility. Adding the UBID to the list will give users the ability to enter the UBID without using the IdentifierCustomName
object.
This proposal is:
-
To add the following enumeration to the IdentifierLabel element.
<xs:enumeration value="UBID"/>
