WI 19145
WI 19145 Timetable • Contributions (mid August 2006) • First draft (mid October 2006)⇒PTmembers • PT meeting in Riyadh to discuss the draft • Final draft mid December 2006 • Review by WG9 by the end of January 2007 • Draft Review Summary mid February 2007
Preliminary content andstructure of the registry (To be refined) • Unique identifier • Name • Version (version number, dates, amendment number …) • Status of the geographic representation format • Data elements and their types • Structure of the data (order of items, type of separator, tags, etc.) • Description of the format (another possible way is to include the description as part of the registry) • Physical data model? • Type of physical data model (e.g. XML Schema?) Profile (e.g. GML point profile)? • Binary vs. text? • Textual description (Characterstring or a Reference to a specification (e.g. CI_Citation)) • Compressed or not • “Parameters for conversion” • Compression mechanism, • Name • Version • Algorithm? • Proprietary format or not (patented or not?)
