#### 8.3.2.11 IfcTimeSeriesDataTypeEnum

IfcTimeSeriesDataTypeEnum describes a type of time series data and is used to determine a value during the time series which is not explicitly specified.

> HISTORY New enumeration in IFC2x2.

Enumerated Item Definitions:

- CONTINUOUS: The time series data is continuous.
- DISCRETE: The time series data is discrete.
- DISCRETEBINARY: The time series data is discrete binary.
- PIECEWISEBINARY: The time series data is piecewise binary.
- PIECEWISECONSTANT: The time series data is piecewise constant.
- PIECEWISECONTINUOUS: The time series data is piecewise continuous.
- NOTDEFINED: The time series data is not defined.
