The work o

21、f 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-governmenta

22、l, 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 3. The main

23、 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. Atte

24、ntion is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 19108 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 211, Geographic information/Geomatics.

26、 vi ISO 2002 All rights reservedIntroduction This International Standard defines the standard concepts needed to describe the temporal characteristics of geographic information as they are abstracted from the real world. Temporal characteristics of geographic information include feature attributes,

27、feature operations, feature associations, and metadata elements that take a value in the temporal domain. The widespread application of computers and geographic information systems has led to the increased analysis of geospatial data within multiple disciplines. Geographic information is not confine

28、d to a three-dimensional spatial domain. Many geographic information systems require data with temporal characteristics. A standardized conceptual schema for temporal characteristics will increase the ability of geographic information to be used for certain types of applications such as simulations

29、and predictive modelling. As a fundamental physical reality, time is of interest to the whole range of scientific and technical disciplines. Many of the concepts described in this International Standard are applicable outside of the field of geographic information. ISO/TC 211 does not intend to deve

30、lop independent standards for the description of time, but the technical committee believes that it is necessary to standardize the way to describe the temporal characteristics of geographic data sets and features. Geographic information system and software developers and users of geographic informa

31、tion will use this schema to provide consistently understandable temporal data structures. Historically, temporal characteristics of features have been treated as thematic feature attributes. For example, a feature “Building“ may have an attribute “date of construction“. However, there is increasing

32、 interest in describing the behaviour of features as a function of time. This can be supported to a limited extent when time is treated independently of space. For example, the path followed by a moving object can be represented as a set of features called “way point“, each of which is represented a

33、s a point and has an attribute that provides the time at which the object was at that spatial position. Behaviour in time may be described more easily if the temporal dimension is combined with the spatial dimensions, so that a feature can be represented as a spatiotemporal object. For example, the

34、path of a moving object could be represented as a curve described by coordinates in x, y and t. This International Standard has been prepared in order to standardize the use of time in feature attributes. Although it does not describe feature geometry in terms of a combination of spatial and tempora

35、l coordinates, it has been written to establish a basis for doing so in a future standard within the ISO 19100 series.

36、AL STANDARD ISO 19108:2002(E) ISO 2002 All rights reserved 1Geographic information Temporal schema 1 Scope This International Standard defines concepts for describing temporal characteristics of geographic information. It depends upon existing information technology standards for the interchange of

37、temporal information. It provides a basis for defining temporal feature attributes, feature operations, and feature associations, and for defining the temporal aspects of metadata about geographic information. Since this International Standard is concerned with the temporal characteristics of geogra

38、phic information as they are abstracted from the real world, it emphasizes valid time rather than transaction time. 2 Conformance 2.1 Conformance classes and requirements This International Standard defines five conformance classes, which depend upon the nature of the test item. 2.2 Application sche

39、mas for data transfer To conform to this International Standard, an application schema for data transfer shall satisfy the requirements of A.1 of the Abstract Test Suite in annex A. 2.3 Application schemas for data with operations To conform to this International Standard, an application schema that

40、 supports operations on data shall satisfy the requirements of A.2 of the Abstract Test Suite in annex A. 2.4 Feature catalogues To conform to this International Standard, a feature catalogue shall satisfy the requirements of A.3 of the Abstract Test Suite in annex A. 2.5 Metadata element specificat
