Table 6.178 — DRM_Point_Feature

Property

Description

Class

<DRM Point Feature>

Superclass

<DRM Primitive Feature>

Subclass

None.

Definition

An instance of this DRM class specifies a <DRM Primitive Feature> for which the spatial information needed for the representation can be abstracted to a single topologically significant location. This is termed a zero-dimensional location, since the topology associated with a <DRM Point Feature> does not provide length, width, or height information.

Clarifications

¹ An association between two <DRM Feature Representation> instances indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <DRM Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.

² An association between a <DRM Geometry Hierarchy> instance and a <DRM Feature Representation> instance indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <DRM Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.

³ An association between a <DRM Property Grid> instance and a <DRM Feature Representation> instance indicates that the environmental object(s) represented by the <DRM Feature Representation> instance and the <DRM Property Grid> instance (or some specific cell data within that <DRM Property Grid> instance) have the semantic relationship indicated by the <DRM Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship. Each associated <DRM Property Grid> instance will indicate whether the entire <DRM Property Grid> instance or only some specific cell data within it is participating in the relationship in question.

⁴ An association between two <DRM Feature Representation> instances indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <DRM Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.

⁵ An association between a <DRM Geometry Hierarchy> instance and a <DRM Feature Representation> instance indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <DRM Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.

⁶ An association between a <DRM Property Grid> instance and a <DRM Feature Representation> instance indicates that the environmental object(s) represented by the <DRM Feature Representation> instance and the <DRM Property Grid> instance (or some specific cell data within that <DRM Property Grid> instance) have the semantic relationship indicated by the <DRM Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship. Each associated <DRM Property Grid> instance will indicate whether the entire <DRM Property Grid> instance or only some specific cell data within it is participating in the relationship in question.

⁷ The <DRM Feature Node> associated with a <DRM Point Feature> instance represents the topology of that <DRM Point Feature>.

⁸ These components support attributes for derived objects; that is, they are used only to specify texture mapping information for geometry that is derived from the <DRM Primitive Feature> by the consumer. These <DRM Image Mapping Function> components shall use <DRM Image Anchor> components to specify the mapping.

⁹ This is needed because in many cases, a <DRM Primitive Feature> may be significant only for a particular domain, such as radar.

Constraints

Example(s)

Consider a well represented by a <DRM Point Feature> instance. The <DRM Point Feature> instance has a <DRM Classification Data> instance classifying it as a well, an associated <DRM Feature Node> instance specifying its location, and <DRM Property Value> components specifying its depth below the terrain surface and the potability of the water it contains.
Consider a road interchange represented as a <DRM Point Feature> instance. The <DRM Point Feature> instance has a <DRM Classification Data> instance classifying it as ECC_ROAD_INTERCHANGE, and an associated <DRM Feature Node> instance specifying its location. In addition, the <DRM Feature Node> instance in this example is associated with some <DRM Feature Edge> instances that are part of the topology of some <DRM Linear Feature> instances representing the roads in question.
Consider a small building represented as a <DRM Point Feature> instance. It has a <DRM Feature Node> instance that defines its location, a <DRM Classification Data> instance that identifies it as a building, and a set of <DRM Property Value> components that describe its characteristics, such as its height and its building functional category.
