package org.opengis.metadata.spatial
Spatial representation information (includes grid and vector representation). The following is adapted from OpenGIS® Metadata (Topic 11) specification.

This package contains information concerning the mechanisms used to represent spatial information in a dataset. The spatial representation entity is optional and can be specified as grid spatial representation and vector spatial representation. Each of the specified entities contains mandatory and optional metadata elements. When further description is necessary, vector spatial representation may be specified as georectified. and/or georeferenceable entity.

  • Class
    Description
    CellGeometry
    Code indicating whether grid data is point or area.
    Dimension
    Axis properties.
    DimensionNameType
    Name of the dimension.
    GCP
    Information on ground control point.
    GCPCollection
    Information about a control point collection.
    GeolocationInformation
    Information used to determine geographic location corresponding to image location.
    GeometricObjects
    Number of objects, listed by geometric object type, used in the dataset.
    GeometricObjectType
    Name of point and vector spatial objects used to locate zero-, one-, and twodimensional spatial locations in the dataset.
    Georectified
    Grid whose cells are regularly spaced in a geographic (i.e., lat / long) or map coordinate system defined in the Spatial Referencing System (SRS) so that any cell in the grid can be geolocated given its grid coordinate and the grid origin, cell spacing, and orientation indication of whether or not geographic.
    Georeferenceable
    Grid with cells irregularly spaced in any given geographic/map projection coordinate system, whose individual cells can be geolocated using geolocation information supplied with the data but cannot be geolocated from the grid properties alone.
    GridSpatialRepresentation
    Basic information required to uniquely identify a resource or resources.
    PixelOrientation
    Point in a pixel corresponding to the Earth location of the pixel.
    SpatialRepresentation
    Digital mechanism used to represent spatial information.
    SpatialRepresentationType
    Method used to represent geographic information in the dataset.
    TopologyLevel
    Degree of complexity of the spatial relationships.
    VectorSpatialRepresentation
    Information about the vector spatial objects in the dataset.
