RAIN URI Identifier
Active
The RAIN URI Identifier defines how a RAIN item identifier is expressed as a URI, so that it can be read and resolved by a smartphone operating system without a dedicated application. It covers two modes: the URI as the unique item identifier in MB01, optionally extended into user memory, and the URI as an add-on to an existing identifier stored in user memory. Annex B defines the RAIN URI Templates that the RUTlist publishes.
