FAQs

Where can users find further information on feature topology in SEDRIS?

See Part 4, Volume 4 Topology Technical Guide of the SEDRIS Documentation Set for further information.

Why can't a <Reference Surface> be associated to a <Feature Hierarchy>, as with <Geometry Hierarchy>?

A <Reference Surface> is associated to a <Geometry Hierarchy> to indicate that the <Geometry Hierarchy> contains a resolution surface. <Feature Hierarchy> instances are not used to represent resolution surfaces.

Notes

Associated to Notes

Feature_Representation

 An association between two <Feature Representation> instances
 indicates that the environmental object(s) that they
 represent have the semantic relationship indicated by
 the <Base Association Data> instance on the association
 relationship.

Geometry_Hierarchy

 An association between a <Geometry Hierarchy> instance and
 a <Feature Representation> instance indicates that the
 environmental object(s) that they represent have the
 semantic relationship indicated by the <Base Association Data>
 instance on the association relationship.

Property_Grid

 An association between a <Property Grid> instance and a
 <Feature Representation> instance indicates that the
 environmental object(s) represented by the
 <Feature Representation> instance and the <Property Grid> instance
 (or some specific cell data within that <Property Grid> instance)
 have the semantic relationship indicated by the
 <Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.
 Each associated <Property Grid> instance will indicate whether the
 entire <Property Grid> instance or only some specific cell data
 within it is participating in the relationship in question.
