Table: S
Site Information
A site is a facility or non-facility based setting (e.g. park, street corner), which serves as a point of service delivery. If an agency has
multiple sites, this table is completed for each site. However, if an agency has multiple sites with the same zip code that are of the same
site type, the agency may use a single site name and ID for the encompassing locations. For example, a mobile van that rotates to
several sites within the same zip code.
Num

Definition:
XSD (Schema) Name: siteId
Site ID
Format Type: Alpha-Numeric
Min Length: 1
Max Length: 32
A unique alpha-numeric identification code used to distinguish the locations where an agency delivers the HIV prevention
service.
A site ID is unique to an agency.
For Partner services (PS), the Site ID distinguishes between the agency site locations and should identify the locality
where the PS case is assigned (i.e., the county health department).
Instructions:
Indicate the unique alpha-numeric ID that will be used to link prevention services delivered by a particular agency to a
specific geographic area and type of setting. If using EvaluationWeb for direct key entry, this ID may be generated for you.
If a mobile van is used, an agency may assign the same ID to sites that are of the same type AND located within the
same zip code (e.g., all churches in 39126).
