Geo::ISO19139 - access iso-19139 structures

INHERITANCE

SYNOPSIS

# See Geo::ISO19139:2005

DESCRIPTION

ISO TC/211 (Geographic Information/Geomatics) is responsible for the ISO geographic information series of standards, in coordination with OpenGIS Consortium (OGC) and many other organisations and bodies. See http://www.isotc211.org

This distribution contains all definitions of ISO-19139: "Metadata - Implementation specification", which is the specification of many ISO-191xx standards. GML (ISO19136) which is released seperately in package Geo::GML, because it has also many pre-ISO versions.

In the future, it would be nice to extend this module into more of an application base. On the moment, it is just a schema container, which enables you to read and write XML which use these schemas.

Name-spaces and Components: GMD ISO19115 Metadata GSS ISO19107 Spatial Schema, realized by GML GTS ISO19108 Temporal Schema GSR ISO19111 Spatial Reference Schema, realized by GML GCO ISO19118 Encoding, basic types GMX Extended Geographic Metadata

METHODS

Constructors

Geo::ISO19139->new('READER'|'WRITER'|'RW', OPTIONS)

    This new() method will instantiate a Geo::ISO19139::2005 object, when called with the required "version => 2005" option. Other OPTIONS are passed to Geo::ISO19139::2005::new().

    Option --Default
    version  <required>

    . version => VERSION

      Only used when the object is created directly from this base-class. It determines which GML syntax is to be used. Can be a VERSION like "2005"
