Review nc:ConveyanceFuelCategoryAbstract

[cdmgtri]

j:EngineType contains element nc:ConveyanceFuelCategoryAbstract. This element has substitutions for a text element, an AMMVA D20 code, and a NDEX code. This element is in the wrong spot or has the wrong name.

Current

j:EngineType

• j:EngineCylinderQuantity
• j:EngineID
• nc:ConveyanceFuelCategoryAbstract
• j:EngineDisplacementMeasure
• j:EngineHorsepowerQuantity

Options

1. Leave the element under j:EngineType and change the name and namespace to j:EngineFuelCategoryAbstract
2. Move the element to j:ConveyanceAugmentationType and move it to the Justice namespace (j:ConveyanceFuelCategoryAbstract)
3. Move the element to nc:ConveyanceType and leave the name as is (nc:ConveyanceFuelCategoryAbstract)

After checking with subject matter experts from the FBI (they no longer track this field) and AAMVA (they currently track fuel category at the conveyance/vehicle level), recommend leaving the element name as is and moving it to nc:ConveyanceType (Option 3).

I agree with moving to nc:ConveyanceType.
I would argue that since propulsion type (engine, sail, etc.) and engine properties (where propulsion type is engine) are features of conveyance, the entire j:EngineType and substitutions are candidates for core (nc:ConveyanceType, nc:VehicleType).

The Harmonization Workgroup recommends moving nc:ConveyanceFuelCategoryAbstract to nc:ConveyanceType.

Further changes to engines and fuel categories may be necessary at some point. The current modeling fulfills the currently known requirements, but can be reconsidered if additional requirements are submitted.
