The development version of this mzData schema.
accessionNumber  xs:stringrequired      
documentation 
The accession number assigned arbitrarily to a particular mzData instance (i.e. data) file, by the generator of that file. This accession number is intended to serve as a (locally) unique reference by which to identify a particular mzData instance file, and is not intended to be related to any other accession number, such as that for a particular entry in a reference database such as Uniprot, or the element sampleName under the admin branch of mzData.

documentation 
This schema can capture the use of a mass spectrometer, the data generated, and the initial processing of that data (to the level of the peak list). Peak lists are processed data from a mass spectrometry experiment. There can be multiple peak lists in an mzData file, which might be related via a separation, or  just in sequence from an automated run. Any one peak list (mass spectrum) may also be composed of a number of acquisitions, which can be described individually herein.

documentation 
The value to which the supDataArrayRef attribute on suppDesc refers; values should never be shared between binary and non-binary supplemental arrays.
length  xs:intrequired      
documentation 
Number of items in the supDataArray.
indexed  xs:booleanrequired      
documentation 
Each supDataArray can either be related to the mzArray or not.If the elements are related to the mzArray then this flag is set to 1.
offset  xs:intoptional  0    
documentation 
If the indexed flag is set, then this value gives the element count (starting from 1) in the mzArray which aligns with the first element in this supDataArray.
