ddi_accsPlac() is the location where the data collection is currently stored. Use the URI attribute to provide a URN or URL for the storage site or the actual address from which the data may be downloaded.

ddi_avlStatus() is the statement of collection availability. An archive may need to indicate that a collection is unavailable because it is embargoed for a period of time, because it has been superseded, because a new edition is imminent, etc.

ddi_collSize() summarizes the number of physical files that exist in a collection, recording the number of files that contain data and noting whether the collection contains machine-readable documentation and/or other supplementary files and information such as data dictionaries, data definition statements, or data collection instruments.

ddi_complete() is the completeness of study stored. This item indicates the relationship of the data collected to the amount of data coded and stored in the data collection. Information as to why certain items of collected information were not included in the data file stored by the archive should be provided.

ddi_fileQnty() is the total number of physical files associated with a collection.

ddi_origArch() is the archive from which the data collection was obtained; the originating archive.
