propose to collapse types ResourceIdentifier, ResourceName into one (ResourceIdentifier), with the restriction to be an URI (resolvable or not), with no further schema restriction (like "smi:... or qml:... of QuakeMl 1.2).

RealQuantity [type]

Physical quantities that can be expressed numerically—either as integers or as floating point numbers—are represented by their measured or computed values and optional values for symmetric or upper and lower uncertainties. The interpretation of these uncertainties is not defined in the standard. They can contain statistically well-defined error measures, but the mechanism can also be used to simply describe a possible value range. If the confidence level of the uncertainty is known, it can be listed in the optional attribute confidenceLevel. Note that uncertainty, upperUncertainty, and lowerUncertainty are given as absolute values of the deviation from the main value.

RealQuantity.value (type float)
