features. GML serves as a modeling language for geographic systems as well as an open interchange format for geographic transactions on the Internet. Key to GML's utility is its ability to integrate all forms of geographic information, including not only conventional "vector" or discrete objects, but coverages (see also <a href="/wiki/JPEG_2000#GML_JP2_georeferencing" title="JPEG 2000">GMLJP2</a>) and sensor data. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="GML_model">GML model</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=1" title="Edit section: GML model"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>GML contains a rich set of <a href="/wiki/Geometric_primitive" title="Geometric primitive">primitives</a> which are used to build application specific schemas or application languages.

Subsequently, the OGC introduced <a href="/wiki/XML_Schema_(W3C)" title="XML Schema (W3C)">XML schemas</a> into GML's structure to help connect the various existing geographic databases, whose relational structure XML schemas more easily defined.

Application schemas are XML vocabularies defined using GML and which live in an application-defined target namespace. Application schemas can be built on specific GML profiles or use the full GML schema set. </p><p>Profiles are often created in support for GML derived languages (see <a href="#Application_schema">application schemas</a>) created in support of particular application domains such as commercial aviation, nautical charting or resource exploitation. </p><p>The GML Specification (Since GML v3.) contains a pair of <a href="/wiki/XSLT" title="XSLT">XSLT</a> scripts (usually referred to as the "subset tool") that can be used to construct GML profiles. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="GML_Simple_Features_Profile">GML Simple Features Profile</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: GML Simple Features Profile"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The <i>GML Simple Features Profile</i> is a more complete profile of GML than the above <i>Point Profile</i> and supports a wide range of vector feature objects, including the following: </p> <ol><li>A reduced geometry model allowing 0d, 1d and 2d linear geometric objects (all based on linear interpolation) and the corresponding aggregate geometries (gml:MultiPoint, gml:MultiCurve, etc.).</li> <li>A simplified feature model which can only be one level deep (in the general GML model, arbitrary nesting of features and feature properties is not permitted).</li> <li>All non-geometric properties must be XML Schema simple types – i.e. cannot contain nested elements.</li> <li>Remote property value references (xlink:href) just like in the main GML specification.</li></ol> <p>Since the profile aims to provide a simple entry point, it does not provide support for the following: </p> <ul><li>coverages</li> <li>topology</li> <li>observations</li> <li>value objects (for real time sensor data)</li> <li>dynamic features</li></ul> <p>Nonetheless it supports a good variety of real world problems. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Subset_tool">Subset tool</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section: Subset tool"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In addition, the GML specification provides a <i>subset tool</i> to generate GML profiles containing a user-specified list of components.

As restrictions of the full GML specification, application schemas that a profile can generate must themselves be valid GML application schemas. </p><p>The subset tool can generate profiles for many other reasons as well. Listing the elements and attributes to include in the resultant profile schema and running the tool results in a single profile schema file containing only the user-specified items and all of the element, attribute and type declarations on which the specified items depend. Some Profile schemas created in this manner support other specifications including <a href="/wiki/IHO" class="mw-redirect" title="IHO">IHO</a> <a href="/wiki/IHO#Publications" class="mw-redirect" title="IHO">S-57</a> and GML in JPEG 2000. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Application_schema">Application schema</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Application schema"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In order to expose an application's geographic data with GML, a community or organization creates an XML schema specific to the application domain of interest (the <i>application schema</i>). This schema describes the object types whose data the community is interested in and which community applications must expose. For example, an application for tourism may define object types including monuments, places of interest, museums, road exits, and viewpoints in its <i>application schema</i>.

Whereas GML is a language to encode geographic content for any application, by describing a spectrum of application objects and their properties (e.g. bridges, roads, buoys, vehicles etc.), KML is a language for the visualization of geographic information tailored for <a href="/wiki/Google_Earth" title="Google Earth">Google Earth</a>. KML can be used to render GML content, and GML content can be “styled” using KML for the purposes of presentation. KML is first and foremost a 3D portrayal transport, not a data exchange transport. As a result of this significant difference in purpose, encoding GML content for portrayal using KML results in significant and unrecoverable loss of structure and identity in the resulting KML. Over 90% of GML's structures (such as, to name a few, metadata, <a href="/wiki/Coordinate_reference_system" class="mw-redirect" title="Coordinate reference system">coordinate reference systems</a>, horizontal and vertical datums, geometric integrity of circles, ellipses, arcs, etc.) cannot be transformed to KML without loss or non-standard encoding. Similarly, due to KML's design as a portrayal transport, encoding KML content in GML will result in significant loss of KML portrayal structures such as regions, level of detail rules, viewing and animation information, as well as styling information and multiscale representation. The ability to portray placemarks at multiple levels of details distinguishes KML from GML, since portrayal is outside the scope of GML.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="GML_geometries">GML geometries</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=8" title="Edit section: GML geometries"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>GML encodes the <i>GML geometries</i>, or <i>geometric characteristics</i>, of geographic objects as elements within GML documents according to the "vector" model.

A <i>feature</i> is an application object that represents a physical entity, e.g. a building, a river, or a person. A <i>feature</i> may or may not have geometric aspects. A <i>geometry object</i> defines a location or region instead of a physical entity, and hence is different from a <i>feature</i>. </p><p>In GML, a <i>feature</i> can have various geometry properties that describe geometric aspects or characteristics of the feature (e.g. the feature's <i>Point</i> or <i>Extent</i> properties). GML also provides the ability for <i>features</i> to share a geometry property with one another by using a <i>remote property reference</i> on the shared geometry property. Remote properties are a general feature of GML borrowed from RDF. An <i>xlink:href</i> attribute on a GML geometry property means that the value of the property is the resource referenced in the link. </p><p>For example, a <i>Building</i> feature in a particular GML application schema might have a position given by the primitive GML geometry object type <i>Point</i>. However, the <i>Building</i> is a separate entity from the <i>Point</i> that defines its position.

Lake presented his early ideas to an <a href="/wiki/Open_Geospatial_Consortium" title="Open Geospatial Consortium">OGC</a> meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, in February 1999, under the title xGML. This introduced the idea of a GeoDOM, and the notion of Geographic Styling Language (GSL) based on <a href="/wiki/Extensible_Stylesheet_Language" class="mw-redirect" title="Extensible Stylesheet Language">XSL</a>. Akifumi Nakai of NTT Data also presented at the same meeting on work partly underway at NTT Data on an XML encoding called G-XML, which was targeted at location–based services.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In April 1999, Galdos created the XBed team (with CubeWerx, <a href="/wiki/Oracle_Corporation" title="Oracle Corporation">Oracle Corporation</a>, <a href="/wiki/MapInfo_Corporation" title="MapInfo Corporation">MapInfo Corporation</a>, NTT Data, <a href="/wiki/Mitsubishi" title="Mitsubishi">Mitsubishi</a>, and Compusult as subcontractors). Xbed was focused on the use of XML for geospatial. This led to the creation of SFXML (Simple Features XML) with input from Galdos, US Census, and NTT Data. Galdos demonstrated an early map style engine pulling data from an Oracle-based "GML" data server (precursor of the WFS) at the first OGC Web Map Test Bed in September 1999. In October 1999, Galdos Systems rewrote the SFXML draft document into a Request for Comment, and changed the name of the language to GML (Geography Markup Language). This document introduced several key ideas that became the foundation of GML, including the 1) Object-Property-Value rule, 2) Remote properties (via rdf:resource), and 3) the decision to use application schemas rather than a set of static schemas. The paper also proposed that the language be based on the <a href="/wiki/Resource_Description_Framework" title="Resource Description Framework">Resource Description Framework</a> (RDF) rather than on the DTDs used to that point. These issues, including the use of RDF, were hotly debated within the OGC community during 1999 and 2000, with the result that the final GML Recommendation Paper contained three GML profiles – two based on <a href="/wiki/Document_Type_Definition" class="mw-redirect" title="Document Type Definition">DTD</a>, and one on RDF – with one of the DTD's using a static schema approach. This passed as a Recommendation Paper at the OGC in May 2000.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Moving_to_XML_Schema_–_Version_2."><span id="Moving_to_XML_Schema_.E2.80.93_Version_2."></span>Moving to XML Schema – Version 2.</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=17" title="Edit section: Moving to XML Schema – Version 2."><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Even before the passage of the Recommendation Paper at the OGC, Galdos had started work on an <a href="/wiki/XML_Schema_(W3C)" title="XML Schema (W3C)">XML Schema</a> version of GML, replacing the rdf:resource scheme for remote references with the use of xlink:href, and developing specific patterns (e.g. Barbarians at the Gate) for handling extensions for complex structures like feature collections. Much of the XML Schema design work was done by Mr. Richard Martell of Galdos who served as the document editor and who was mainly responsible for the translation of the basic GML model into an XML Schema. Other important inputs in this time frame came from Simon Cox (CSIRO Australia), Paul Daisey (US Census), David Burggraf (Galdos), and Adrian Cuthbert (Laser-Scan). The US Army Corps of Engineers (particularly Jeff Harrison) were quite supportive of the development of GML. The US Army Corps of Engineers sponsored the “USL Pilot” project, which was very helpful in exploring the utility of linking and styling concepts in the GML specification, with important work being done by Monie (Ionic) and Xia Li (Galdos). The XML Schema specification draft was submitted by Galdos and was approved for public distribution in December 2000. It became a Recommendation Paper in February 2001 and an Adopted Specification in May of the same year. This version (V2.0) eliminated the “profiles” from version 1. and established the key principles, as outlined in the original Galdos submission, as the basis of GML. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="GML_and_G-XML_(Japan)"><span id="GML_and_G-XML_.28Japan.29"></span>GML and G-XML (Japan)</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=18" title="Edit section: GML and G-XML (Japan)"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As these events were unfolding, work was continuing in parallel in Japan on G-XML under the auspices of the Japanese Database Promotion Center under the direction of Mr. Shige Kawano. G-XML and GML differed in several important respects. Targeted at LBS applications, G-XML employed many concrete geographic objects (e.g. Mover, POI), while GML provided a very limited concrete set and built more complex objects by the use of application schemas. At this point in time, G-XML was still written using a DTD, while GML had already transitioned to an XML Schema. On the one hand G-XML required the use of many fundamental constructs not at the time in the GML lexicon, including temporality, spatial references by identifiers, objects having histories, and the concept of topology-based styling. GML, on the other hand, offered a limited set of primitives (geometry, feature) and a recipe to construct user defined object (feature) types. </p><p>A set of meetings held in Tokyo in January 2001, and involving Ron Lake (Galdos), Richard Martell (Galdos), OGC Staff (Kurt Buehler, David Schell), Mr. Shige Kawano (DPC), Mr. Akifumi Nakai (NTT Data) and Dr. Shimada (Hitachi CRL) led to the signing of an MOU between DPC and OGC by which OGC would endeavour to inject the fundamental elements required to support G-XML into GML, thus enabling G-XML to be written as a GML application schema. This resulted in many new types entering GML's core object list, including observations, dynamic features, temporal objects, default styles, topology, and viewpoints. Much of the work was conducted by Galdos under contract to NTT Data. This laid the foundation for GML 3, although a significant new development occurred in this time frame, namely the intersection of the OGC and <a href="/wiki/ISO/TC_211" class="mw-redirect" title="ISO/TC 211">ISO/TC 211</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Towards_ISO_–_GML_3.0_broadens_the_scope_of_GML"><span id="Towards_ISO_.E2.80.93_GML_3.0_broadens_the_scope_of_GML"></span>Towards ISO – GML 3.0 broadens the scope of GML</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Geography_Markup_Language&amp;action=edit&amp;section=19" title="Edit section: Towards ISO – GML 3.0 broadens the scope of GML"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>While a basic coding existed for most of the new objects introduced by the GML/G-XML agreement, and for some introduced by Galdos within the <a href="/wiki/Open_Geospatial_Consortium" title="Open Geospatial Consortium">OGC process</a> (notably coverages), it soon became apparent that few of these encodings were compliant with the abstract specifications developed by the ISO TC/211, specifications which were increasingly becoming the basis for all OGC specifications. GML geometry, for example, had been based on an earlier and only partly documented geometry model (Simple Features Geometry) and this was insufficient to support the more extensive and complex geometries described in TC/211. The management of GML development was also altered in this time frame with the participation of many more individuals.
