Phenomenon

@UML(identifier="ConstraintPhenomenon",
     specification=OGC_07022)
public interface ConstrainedPhenomenon
extends Phenomenon

A ConstrainedProperty modifies a base property by adding singleConstraints, each specifying a value on some secondary axis. Example: "water temperature" has the base "temperature" (i.e. it is a kind of temperature) constrained so that the property "substance" has the value "water". "Surface water temperature" might add another constraint that "depth" is "between 0 - 0.3m".

GeoAPI 2.3

Method Summary

Phenomenon	getBase() Property that forms the basis for generating a set of more refined Phenomena; e.g.
String	getOtherConstraint() Constraints that cannot be expressed as values of an orthogonal/helper phenomenon
Object	getSingleConstraint() Constraint expressed as a value or range of an orthogonal/helper phenomenon
