moduleName: eml-spatialVectormoduleDescription: The eml-spatialVector module - Logical information about non-gridded geospatial image datarecommendedUsage: all spatial datasets that contain spatial data entities represented as vector features.standAlone: yes
tooltip: Attribute Listsummary: The list of attributes associated with this entity.description: The list of attributes associated with this entity. For more information see the eml-attribute module.
tooltip: Constraintsummary: Description of any relational constraints on this entity.description: Description of any relational constraints on this entity. For more information see the eml-constraint module.
tooltip: Geometrysummary: Type of geometric feature(s) represented in the entity.description: Geometric feature classification is based on an enumeration of simple feature classes defined by the OpenGIS consortium and implemented in Geographic Markup Language as simple feature types.example: polygon
tooltip: Geometric Object Countsummary: Total number of the geometric objects occurring in the dataset.description: Total number of the geometric objects occurring in the dataset.example: 24
tooltip: Topology Levelsummary: Code which identifies the degree of complexity.description: This element describes the relative complexity of the geometric information in the data file.example: geometryOnly
tooltip: Horizontal Accuracysummary: Horizontal positional accuracy of the datadescription: Horizontal positional accuracy of the data expressed as either text or quantitative assessment.
tooltip: Accuracy Reportsummary: A qualitative statement about the accuracy of the data.description: A text statement of the data quality, included the means by which it was determined.
tooltip: Quantitative Accuracy Reportsummary: A quantitative assessment of the data quality.description: A quantitative assessment of the data quality expressed as a value and the method of its determination.
tooltip: Quantitative Accuracy Valuesummary: The value resulting from the accuracy test.description: The value resulting from the accuracy test. Typically, this will be expressed in units corresponding to those declared for the parameter being assessed.example: 4.5
tooltip: Quantitative Accuracy Methodsummary: The method used to calculate the accuracy value.description: Identification and explanation of the method used to calculate the quantitative accuracy assessment.example: Error expressed as root mean square of 5 control points.
tooltip: Vertical Accuracysummary: Vertical positional accuracy of the datadescription: Vertical positional accuracy of the data expressed as either text or quantitative assessment.
tooltip: Spatial Vectorsummary: Description of a spatial data entity based on features represented by vectorsdescription: Description of a spatial data entity based on features represented by vectors
