Oracle Data Dictionaries
All data dictionaries held in Oracle. They include both administrative (e.g. codes for companies), scientific (e.g. codes for deformation episodes) and geographic (e.g. codes for countries). Typically, they are used to constrain the allowable values held in other Oracle datasets. In some cases they are an implementation of the classifications that the BGS uses in its work.

Dictionaries are frequently created and updated depending on the individual data dictionary - some will have new entries added several times each day; others will never be extended. Data Dictionaries are subject to constant improvement, update and review within the BGS by the Dictionary Management Group.
