astropy.io.votable.ucd.parse_ucd(ucd, check_controlled_vocabulary=False, has_colon=False) [edit on github][source]¶
Parse the UCD into its component parts.
Parameters :
ucd : str
The UCD string
check_controlled_vocabulary : bool, optional
If True, then each word in the UCD will be verified against
the UCD1+ controlled vocabulary, (as required by the VOTable
specification version 1.2), otherwise not.
has_colon : bool, optional
If True, the UCD may contain a colon (as defined in earlier
versions of the standard).
Returns :
parts : list
The result is a list of tuples of the form:
(namespace, word)
If no namespace was explicitly specified, namespace will be
returned as 'ivoa' (i.e., the default namespace).
