DIN EN ISO 19110/A1:2011-09

This document is the amendment to DIN EN ISO 19110:2006-09 and is based on experience regarding the previous application of this standard, experience and lessons learned by the project team of ISO 19126 "Geographic information - Feature concept dictionaries and registers", and harmonization with other standards ISO/TC 211 "Geographic information/Geomatics". This Amendment 1 provides in particular XML (Extensible Mark-up Language) schemas that are meant to enhance interoperability by providing a common specification for describing, validating, and exchanging feature catalogue information. Feature catalogues defining the types of features, attributes and associations and their operations are indispensable for interpreting and turning the data into usable information. Feature catalogues provide a better understanding of the content and meaning of geographic data and promote their dissemination, sharing and use. These supplements and minor modifications aim to: -facilitate the use of ISO 19110 to create geographic feature catalogues; - ensure a consistent description of the feature types of an application schema; - enhance the compliance of ISO 19110 with ISO 19109 "Geographic information - Rules for application schema"; - enable an XML schema implementation of ISO 19110-compliant feature catalogues. This implementation of the XML schema is based on the ISO/TS 19139 encoding rules according to ISO/TS 19139 "Geographic information - Metadata - XML schema implementation"; - enable the registration of feature catalogues and their feature types. The Committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-03-03 AA "Kartographie und Geoinformation (SpA zu CEN/TC 287+ISO/TC 211)" ("Cartography and geographic information (Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 287+ISO/TC 211)") at DIN.
