12.3.3.5 EllipsoidalCS

element name=ellipsoidalCS type=gml:EllipsoidalCSPropertyType gml:ellipsoidalCS is an association role to the ellipsoidal coordinate system used by this CRS.

12.3.3.6 cartesianCS

element name=cartesianCS type=gml:CartesianCSPropertyType gml:cartesianCS is an association role to the Cartesian coordinate system used by this CRS.

12.3.3.7 sphericalCS

element name=sphericalCS type=gml:SphericalCSPropertyType gml:sphericalCS is an association role to the spherical coordinate system used by this CRS.

12.3.3.8 geodeticDatum

element name=geodeticDatum type=gml:GeodeticDatumPropertyType gml:geodeticDatum is an association role to the geodetic datum used by this CRS.

12.3.3.9 GeodeticCRSPropertyType

complexType name=GeodeticCRSPropertyType sequence minOccurs=0 element ref=gml:GeodeticCRS sequence attributeGroup ref=gml:AssociationAttributeGroup complexType gml:GeodeticCRSPropertyType is a property type for association roles to a geodetic coordinate reference system, either referencing or containing the definition of that reference system.

element name=VerticalCRS type=gml:VerticalCRSType substitutionGroup=gml:AbstractSingleCRS complexType name=VerticalCRSType complexContent extension base=gml:AbstractCRSType sequence element ref=gml:verticalCS element ref=gml:verticalDatum sequence extension 104 Copyright © 2007 Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. All Rights Reserved. complexContent complexType gml:VerticalCRS is a 1D coordinate reference system used for recording heights or depths. Vertical CRSs make use of the direction of gravity to define the concept of height or depth, but the relationship with gravity may not be straightforward. By implication, ellipsoidal heights h cannot be captured in a vertical coordinate reference system. Ellipsoidal heights cannot exist independently, but only as an inseparable part of a 3D coordinate tuple defined in a geographic 3D coordinate reference system.

element name=ProjectedCRS type=gml:ProjectedCRSType substitutionGroup=gml:AbstractGeneralDerivedCRS complexType name=ProjectedCRSType complexContent extension base=gml:AbstractGeneralDerivedCRSType sequence choice element ref=gml:baseGeodeticCRS element ref=gml:baseGeographicCRS choice element ref=gml:cartesianCS sequence extension complexContent complexType gml:ProjectedCRS is a 2D coordinate reference system used to approximate the shape of the Earth on a planar surface, but in such a way that the distortion that is inherent to the approximation is carefully controlled and known. Distortion correction is commonly applied to calculated bearings and distances to produce values that are a close match to actual field values.
