Geographic Coordinate System description

Dimap 1.1.2 DEM Profile

<Geographic_CS>

Dimap_Generic 1.0

Description :

The Geographic Coordinate System description is part of the CRS description. This is the top level entry for completely defining a geographic coordinate system (ellipsoid, datum, prime meridian,...)

Please refer to the Dimap Documentation for a complete description of the Dimap Geodetic scheme.

Example :
 
<Geographic_CS>
  <GEOGRAPHIC_CS_NAME>GCS_ED50</GEOGRAPHIC_CS_NAME>
  <GEOGRAPHIC_CS_CODE>epsg:4230</GEOGRAPHIC_CS_CODE>
</Geographic_CS>

or

<Geographic_CS>

  <GEOGRAPHIC_CS_NAME>Special Bangladesh</GEOGRAPHIC_CS_NAME>
  <Horizontal_Datum>
    ...
  </Horizontal_Datum>
</Geographic_CS>

Constraint :

CM if HORIZONTAL_CS_CODE not present

Note :CM means Conditional Mandatory, X means Excluded

Datatype : t_Geographic_CS

Unordered sub-elements :

GEOGRAPHIC_CS_NAME

GEOGRAPHIC_CS_CODE minOccurs : 1

Horizontal_Datum minOccurs : 0, CM if GEOGRAPHIC_CS_CODE not present

Note: MinOcurs = 0 means element is optional, maxOccurs = unbounded means element is repeatable.
MinOccurs default value is 1 (element is mandatory)
maxOccurs default value is 1 (element is not repeatable)
