### ecoSpold XML Instance Structure

Source: https://pyecospold.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_static/v2-schema/EcoSpold02.html

XML instance representation of the ecoSpold element, showing the choice between activityDataset and childActivityDataset, each with cardinality [1], and the allowance for any elements from other namespaces with lax validation.

```xml
<ecoSpold>
   Start Choice [1..*]
      <activityDataset> es:TActivityDataset </activityDataset> [1]
      <childActivityDataset> esc:TActivityDataset </childActivityDataset> [1]
   End Choice
   Allow any elements from a namespace other than this schema's namespace (lax validation). [0..*]
</ecoSpold>
