Definition: 

A measurement that describes a means of capturing data. This class can be extended to account for different specific means. Use a specific instantiation of a Capture to describe a means of capturing a measurement.

Explanatory Notes: 

Provides an abstract base so that current and future forms of data capture can use this as an extension base and be freely mixed and matched within conceptual instruments as needed such as capturing a GPS point (using a RepresentedMeasurement) when administering a questionnaire (using RepresentedQuestions).

Example: 
A survey question, blood pressure reading; MRI images; thermometer; web service; experimental observation. Classes could include InstanceQuestion, InstanceMeasurement or other class extending Capture.
