should exist in any of its sub-elements. A \elem{RESOURCE} without
this attribute {\em may} however have no \elem{DATA} sub-element.

\elem{RESOURCE} qualified by \attrval{type}{meta} can be used e.g. to host
MIVOT (Model Instances in VOTables) annotations \citep{2023ivoa.spec.0620M}.
MIVOT defines a syntax to map VOTable
data to any model serizalized in VO-DML \citep{2018ivoa.spec.0910L}.
It operates as a bridge between models and data that associates VOTable
metadata to data model leaves.
It also brings up data or metadata that were possibly missing in the actual dataset.
MIVOT annotations have their own namespace; they have no impact on the VOTable schema.

Finally, the \elem{RESOURCE} element may have a \attr{utype} attribute
to link the element to some external data model
(introduced in version 1.1, see \Aref{sec:utype}).
