> ## Schema locations

> The `READ-XML()` method can find and use XML Schema from the following sources, in the order defined below:

> 1. The XML Schema specified with the `schema-location` option of the `READ-XML()` method. If this option is used, XML Schema references embedded in XML data are ignored.

> 2. A `<schema>` child element of the root element of the XML data document. Provided the method does not specify a `schema-location`, then any one or combination of this and the remaining list item are used.

> 3. An `xsi:schemaLocation` or `xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation` attribute on an instance data in the XML data document.

> 4. If no schema is present, the `READ-XML()` method will attempt to infer schema.
