14、eservedForeword 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 wh
15、ich 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
16、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 ci
17、rculated 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 respo
18、nsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 19111 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 211, Geographic information/Geomatics. ISO 19111:2003(E) ISO 2003 All rights reserved vIntroduction Geographic information contains spatial references which relate the features represented in t
19、he data to positions in the real world. Spatial references fall into two categories: those using coordinates; those based on geographic identifiers. This International Standard deals only with spatial referencing by coordinates. Spatial referencing by geographic identifiers is the subject of ISO 191
20、12, Geographic information Spatial referencing by geographic identifiers. Coordinates are unambiguous only when the coordinate reference system to which those coordinates are related has been fully defined. A coordinate reference system is a coordinate system which has a reference to the Earth. This
21、 International Standard describes the elements that are necessary to define fully various types of coordinate systems and coordinate reference systems applicable to geographic information. The subset of elements required is partially dependent upon the type of coordinates. This International Standar
22、d also includes optional fields to allow for the inclusion of non-essential coordinate reference system information. The elements are intended to be both machine and human readable. A set of coordinates on the same coordinate reference system requires one coordinate reference system description. In
23、addition to describing a coordinate reference system, this International Standard provides for the description of a coordinate transformation or coordinate conversion between two different coordinate reference systems. With such information, geographic data referred to different coordinate reference
24、 systems can be merged together for integrated manipulation. Alternatively, an audit trail of coordinate reference system manipulations can be maintained. INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 19111:2003(E) ISO 2003 All rights reserved 1Geographic information Spatial referencing by coordinates 1 Scope This Int
25、ernational Standard defines the conceptual schema for the description of spatial referencing by coordinates. It describes the minimum data required to define one-, two- and three-dimensional coordinate reference systems. It allows additional descriptive information to be provided. It also describes
26、the information required to change coordinate values from one coordinate reference system to another. This International Standard is applicable to producers and users of geographic information. Although it is applicable to digital geographic data, its principles can be extended to many other forms o
27、f geographic data such as maps, charts, and text documents. 2 Conformance requirements This International Standard defines two classes of conformance, Class A for conformance of coordinate reference systems and Class B for coordinate operations between two coordinate reference systems. Any coordinat
28、e reference system claiming conformance to this International Standard shall satisfy the requirements given in Annex A, Clause A.1. Any coordinate operation claiming conformance to this International Standard shall satisfy the requirements given in Annex A, Clause A.2. 3 Normative references The fol
29、lowing referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
