    public interface MatchesLayer
    extends TextCorpusLayer
    The MatchesLayer layer is present when the TCF data is generated by querying text corpus resources. The layer consists of the original query string and query type (ie the language of the query), and of corpus elements. Each corpus element has a name, a persistent identifier and a list of items. Each item references a token, or sequence of tokens, in the TCF tokens layer and a token, or sequence of tokens, in the original corpus. It specifies the target (if requested in the query), and categories (if additional information about the corresponding original resource can be given, such as document name, author, genre, etc.).
