v2 Beta / 04 / Observables

Describe the reported characteristics.

Separate a reported characteristic from a sensor-supported finding.

Technology and biologics vocabularies provide terms for describing a case. Their inclusion is not a finding that an extraordinary capability occurred.

What the beta supports

Technology and biologics catalogs provide shared descriptive terms. Attributed claims record who made an assessment and what they used; a category alone does not establish a finding.
