Description
ISO/DIS 19115 (2000-12-12) ; OGC Topic 11.
On page 9, Figure three, there's a whole package which is not implemented in GeoAPI. It's not included in the data dictionary (Annex B) either. I didn't know it was there either. However, inclusion would allow client software to:
+ Associate Metadata with FeatureTypes, Feature Attributes, or Feature Properties (not sure why attributes and properties are separate, as an Attribute is a specific type of property.)
+ Describe a "Data set", containing one or more features.
+ Describe groups of data sets (e.g., from a platform, sensor, or as part of a production series.)
+ Describe a "StereoMate", presumably implying a specific relationship between two data items (not sure why this isn't an association in a "StereoPair" feature.
There's also a couple of codelists.
This page will become important down the road when the Imagery specifications are released (19101-2, 19115-2, 19129, 19130).
Hey Bryce,
I suspect this bug is no longer relevant and will close it unless you speak up. (A promise not a threat
)
The newer version of 19115 has a section for this 'package' so it appeared more clearly along the way and was probably fixed by someone who did not see your bug report. Like other trivial packages in GeoAPI metadata, we have implemented the one class directly in the root package. You can see it here:
http://www.geoapi.org/snapshot/javadoc/index.html?org/opengis/metadata/ApplicationSchemaInformation.html
I am not sure what you meant by "a couple of codelists". If these were in the package they seem to have gone now.
So, unless I hear otherwise, I will consider this bug closed,
all the best,
