Geographic information - Methodology for feature cataloguing (ISO 19110:2016)

This document defines the methodology for cataloguing feature types. This document specifies how
feature types can be organized into a feature catalogue and presented to the users of a set of geographic
data. This document is applicable to creating catalogues of feature types in previously uncatalogued
domains and to revising existing feature catalogues to comply with standard practice. This document
applies to the cataloguing of feature types that are represented in digital form. Its principles can be
extended to the cataloguing of other forms of geographic data. Feature catalogues are independent of
feature concept dictionaries defined in ISO 19126 and can be specified without having to use or create
a Feature Concept Dictionary.
This document is applicable to the definition of geographic features at the type level. This document
is not applicable to the representation of individual instances of each type. This document excludes
portrayal schemas as specified in ISO 19117.
This document may be used as a basis for defining the universe of discourse being modelled in a
particular application, or to standardize general aspects of real world features being modelled in more
than one application.

Information géographique - Méthodologie de catalogage des entités (ISO 19110:2016)

L'ISO 19110:2016 définit la méthodologie de catalogage des types d'entités. Il spécifie comment les types d'entités peuvent être organisés dans un catalogue d'entités et présentés aux utilisateurs d'un jeu de données géographiques. Le présent document s'applique à la création de catalogues de types d'entités dans des domaines jusqu'ici non catalogués et à la révision des catalogues d'entités existants pour les rendre conformes aux pratiques normalisées. Il s'applique au catalogage des types d'entités qui sont représentés sous forme numérique. Ses principes peuvent être élargis au catalogage d'autres formes de données géographiques. Les catalogues d'entités sont indépendants des dictionnaires de concepts d'entités définis dans l'ISO 19126 et il est possible de les spécifier sans utiliser ni créer de dictionnaire de concepts d'entités.
L'ISO 19110:2016 s'applique à la définition d'entités géographiques au niveau du type d'entité. Il ne s'applique pas à la représentation des instances individuelles de chaque type. Il exclut les schémas de présentation tels que spécifiés dans l'ISO 19117.
L'ISO 19110:2016 peut être utilisé comme base pour la définition de l'univers du discours modélisé dans une application particulière ou pour normaliser les aspects généraux d'entités du monde réel modélisés dans plusieurs applications.

Geografske informacije - Metodologija za objektne kataloge (ISO 19110:2016)

Ta dokument določa metodologijo za katalogizacijo vrst objektov. Ta dokument določa način organizacije vrst objektov v objektni katalog in predstavitve uporabnikom nabora geografskih podatkov. Ta dokument se uporablja za ustvarjanje katalogov vrst objektov v predhodno nekatalogiziranih domenah in za revidiranje obstoječih objektnih katalogov, kar zagotavlja skladnost z ustaljeno prakso. Ta dokument se uporablja za katalogizacijo vrst objektov, ki so predstavljeni v digitalni obliki. Njegova načela se lahko razširijo na katalogizacijo drugih oblik geografskih podatkov. Objektni katalogi so neodvisni od slovarjev konceptov o pojavih, opredeljenih v standardu ISO 19126, in jih je mogoče opredeliti brez uporabe ali izdelave slovarja konceptov o pojavih.
Ta dokument se uporablja za definicijo geografskih objektov na ravni vrste. Ta dokument se ne uporablja za predstavitev posameznih primerov vsake vrste. Ta dokument ne vključuje shem za prikaz in opisa geografskih podatkov, kot določa standard ISO 19117.
Ta dokument se lahko uporablja kot osnova za določanje na podlagi diskurza, ki se modelira v posamezni uporabi, ali za standardizacijo splošnih vidikov resničnih svetovnih značilnosti, ki se modelirajo v več kot eni uporabi.

Introduction
Geographic features are real-world phenomena associated with a location relative to the Earth, about
which data are collected, maintained, and disseminated. Feature catalogues defining the types of
features, their operations, attributes, and associations represented in geographic data are indispensable
to turning the data into usable information. Such feature catalogues promote the dissemination,
sharing, and use of geographic data through providing a better understanding of the content and
meaning of the data. Unless suppliers and users of geographic data have a shared understanding of the
kinds of real-world phenomena represented by the data, users will be unable to judge whether the data
supplied are fit for their purpose.
The availability of standard feature catalogues that can be used multiple times will reduce costs of data
acquisition and simplify the process of product specification for geographic datasets.
This document provides a standard framework for organizing and reporting the classification of real-
world phenomena in a set of geographic data. Any set of geographic data is a greatly simplified and
reduced abstraction of a complex and diverse world. A catalogue of feature types can never capture
the richness of geographic reality. However, such a feature catalogue should present the particular
abstraction represented in a given dataset clearly, precisely, and in a form readily understandable and
accessible to users of the data.
Geographic features occur at two levels: instances and types. At the instance level, a geographic feature
is represented as a discrete phenomenon that is associated with its geographic and temporal coordinates
and may be portrayed by a particular graphic symbol. These individual feature instances are grouped
into classes with common characteristics: feature types. It is recognized that geographic information is
subjectively perceived and that its content depends on the needs of particular applications. The needs
of particular applications determine the way instances are grouped into types within a particular
classification scheme. ISO 19109 specifies how data shall be organized to reflect the particular needs of
applications with similar data requirements.
NOTE The full description of the contents and structure of a geographic dataset is given by the application
schema developed in compliance with ISO 19109. The feature catalogue defines the meaning of the feature
types and their associated feature attributes, feature operations, and feature associations contained in the
application schema.
This document enables the multilingual description of application schemas compliant with ISO 19109. It
goes further to provide a mechanism enabling a single global description of some properties occurring
many times in an application schema and a binding of those global properties to the corresponding
feature types.
The collection criteria used to identify individual real-world phenomena and to represent them as
feature instances in a dataset are not specified in this document. Because they are not included in
the standards, collection criteria should be included separately in the product specification for each
dataset.
A standard way of organizing feature catalogue information will not automatically result in
harmonization or interoperability between applications. In situations where classifications of features
differ, this document may at least serve to clarify the differences and thereby help to avoid the errors
that would result from ignoring them. It may also be used as a standard framework within which to
harmonize existing feature catalogues that have overlapping domains.
This revision of ISO 19110 addresses issues related to the multilingual management of feature
catalogues and applies the changes documented in a previous amendment. In addition to removing
minor inconsistencies in the conceptual schemas, the amendment enhanced the mechanism ensuring
the management of global properties. The amendment also provided an XML schema implementation of
the feature catalogue conceptual schema and a management of feature catalogue registers. If the initial
conceptual schema is not a subset of the amended conceptual schema, it is possible to transform legacy
instances.

Geographic information — Methodology for feature
cataloguing
1 Scope
This document defines the methodology for cataloguing feature types. This document specifies how
feature types can be organized into a feature catalogue and presented to the users of a set of geographic
data. This document is applicable to creating catalogues of feature types in previously uncatalogued
domains and to revising existing feature catalogues to comply with standard practice. This document
applies to the cataloguing of feature types that are represented in digital form. Its principles can be
extended to the cataloguing of other forms of geographic data. Feature catalogues are independent of
feature concept dictionaries defined in ISO 19126 and can be specified without having to use or create
a Feature Concept Dictionary.
This document is applicable to the definition of geographic features at the type level. This document
is not applicable to the representation of individual instances of each type. This document excludes
portrayal schemas as specified in ISO 19117.
This document may be used as a basis for defining the universe of discourse being modelled in a
particular application, or to standardize general aspects of real world features being modelled in more
than one application.

3.1
designation
designator
representation of a concept by a sign which denotes it
Note 1 to entry: In terminology work, three types of designations are distinguished: symbols, appellations
and terms.
[SOURCE: ISO 1087-1:2000, 3.4.1]
3.2
feature
abstraction of real-world phenomena
EXAMPLE The phenomenon named “Eiffel Tower” may be classified with other similar phenomena into a
feature type “tower.”
Note 1 to entry: A feature may occur as a type or an instance. Feature type or feature instance should be used
when only one is meant.
[SOURCE: ISO 19101-1:2014, 4.1.11]
3.3
feature association
relationship that links instances of one feature (3.2) type with instances of the same or a different
feature type
3.4
feature attribute
characteristic of a feature (3.2)
EXAMPLE 1 A feature attribute named “colour” may have an attribute value “green” which belongs to the data
type “text”.
EXAMPLE 2 A feature attribute named “length” may have an attribute value “82,4” which belongs to the data
type “real”.
Note 1 to entry: A feature attribute has a name, a data type, and a value domain associated to it. A feature
attribute for a feature instance also has an attribute value taken from the value domain.
[SOURCE: ISO 19101-1:2014, 4.1.12]
3.5
feature catalogue
catalogue containing definitions and descriptions of the feature (3.2) types, feature attributes (3.4)
and feature relationships occurring in one or more sets of geographic data, together with any feature
operations (3.7) that can be applied
Note 1 to entry: Feature relationships include feature inheritances (3.6) and feature associations (3.3).
[SOURCE: ISO 19101-1:2014, 4.1.13]
3.6
feature inheritance
mechanism by which more specific features (3.2) incorporate structure and behaviour of more general
features related by behaviour
3.7
feature operation
operation that every instance of a feature (3.2) type may perform
EXAMPLE A feature operation upon a “dam” is to raise the dam. The results of this operation are to raise the
height of the “dam” and the level of water in a “reservoir”.

Note 1 to entry: Sometimes, feature operations provide a basis for feature type definition.
3.8
functional language
language in which feature operations (3.7) are formally specified
Note 1 to entry: In a functional language, feature types may be represented as abstract data types.
3.9
signature
text string that specifies the name and parameters required to invoke an operation
Note 1 to entry: It may contain optional returned parameters. This signature is usually derived from the formal
definition. This is the equivalent of the UML signature.
4 Conformance
4.1 Conformance classes
The methodology for cataloguing feature types is defined through a set of requirements for the
description of feature types. A single conformance class is defined for models meeting all the
conceptual requirements. This document presents a conceptual model for a representation of feature
type descriptions as a set of UML diagrams that satisfy this conformance class. Annex A presents the
abstract test suits for conformance classes.
A second set of requirements for XML implementation of the conceptual model are the basis for a
conformance class for XML implementation of the UML model for representation of feature types in a
feature catalogue. This implementation is based on rules defined in ISO/TS 19139 and ISO/TS 19115-3.
Annex D defines a conceptual model for a registered feature catalogue, but no corresponding XML
implementation is specified by this document.

6 Requirements
6.1 General
Clause 6 specifies general and specific requirements for feature catalogue information elements.
6.2 Conceptual requirements
Tables 2 to 10, 12, and 13 summarize requirements for the conceptual model for describing feature types
and their attributes, operations, and associations in a feature catalogue. Requirements are grouped into
requirements classes; each requirements class has a URI, and each requirement has a URI that is based
on the URI for the requirements class to which it is included. The dependencies column provides the URI
for any requirements class that must be met as a precondition for the requirements class.
In Tables 2 to 10 and 12 to 13, the following conventions are followed.
— The term “entity” is used to refer to model elements representing instantiable information objects
in the conceptual model. Depending on the modelling paradigm used, these may have other labels,
e.g. “object,” “class,” “element,” or “feature”.
— Inclusion of a model entity name in a requirements statement implies that entity or any subtype is
derived from that entity in a model instance.
— Property names are provided in single quotes (‘ ‘), and are all in lower case.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 19110 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 211, Geographic information/Geomatics.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 19110:2005).

Introduction
Geographic features are real world phenomena associated with a location relative to the Earth, about which
data are collected, maintained, and disseminated. Feature catalogues defining the types of features, their
operations, attributes, and associations represented in geographic data are indispensable to turning the data
into usable information. Such feature catalogues promote the dissemination, sharing, and use of geographic
data through providing a better understanding of the content and meaning of the data. Unless suppliers and
users of geographic data have a shared understanding of the kinds of real world phenomena represented by
the data, users will be unable to judge whether the data supplied are fit for their purpose.
The availability of standard feature catalogues that can be used multiple times will reduce costs of data
acquisition and simplify the process of product specification for geographic datasets.
This International Standard provides a standard framework for organizing and reporting the classification of
real world phenomena in a set of geographic data. Any set of geographic data is a greatly simplified and
reduced abstraction of a complex and diverse world. A catalogue of feature types can never capture the
richness of geographic reality. However, such a feature catalogue should present the particular abstraction
represented in a given dataset clearly, precisely, and in a form readily understandable and accessible to users
of the data.
Geographic features occur at two levels: instances and types. At the instance level, a geographic feature is
represented as a discrete phenomenon that is associated with its geographic and temporal coordinates and
may be portrayed by a particular graphic symbol. These individual feature instances are grouped into classes
with common characteristics: feature types. It is recognized that geographic information is subjectively
perceived and that its content depends upon the needs of particular applications. The needs of particular
applications determine the way instances are grouped into types within a particular classification scheme. ISO
19109, Geographic information ― Rules for application schema specifies how data shall be organized to
reflect the particular needs of applications with similar data requirements.
NOTE The full description of the contents and structure of a geographic dataset is given by the application schema
developed in compliance with ISO 19109. The feature catalogue defines the meaning of the feature types and their
associated feature attributes, feature operations and feature associations contained in the application schema.
This International Standard enables the multilingual description of application schemas compliant with ISO
19109. It goes further to provide a mechanism enabling a single global description of some properties
occurring many times in an application schema and a binding of those global properties to the corresponding
feature types.
