Attributes

Name Type Bounds From Class Notes
observationMethod Category 1..* GeologicFeature Feature ObservationMethod specifies the approach to acquiring the collection of attribute values that constitute an individual feature instance (e.g. point count, brunton compass on site, air photo interpretation, field observation, hand specimen, laboratory, aerial photography, creative imagination). ObservationMethod is a convenience property that provides a quick and dirty approach to observation metadata when data are reported using a feature view (as opposed to observation view). For a borehole, the GeologicFeature observation method specifies how the geologic properties were determined (eg, visual observation, or standard AzGS logging procedure (described in detail somewhere else)). This property corresponds (loosely) to ISO19115 Lineage.

numericAgeDate NumericAgeRange 1..1 GeologicEvent The numericAgeDate attribute is the age of a particular geological event or feature expressed in terms of years before present (1950), using CGI_NumericAgeRange. This datatype allows a younger and older age boundary to express an interval, and a reporting age, which is a single numeric age to report for applications that can not use a numeric range. Age in years before present is an estimated time durations based on interpretation of isotopic analyses of EarthMaterial (some other methods are used for geologically young materials).
Numeric age range uses StratigraphicDateEstimate to allow incorporation of various uncertainty measures using ISO19115 DataQuality elements, and binding with observation features to report details of date determination measurement.

eventEnvironment Category 1..* GeologicEvent The physical setting within which a GeologicEvent takes place. GeologicEnvironment is construed broadly to include physical settings on the Earth surface specified by climate, tectonics, physiography or geography, and settings in the Earth’s interior specified by pressure, temperature, chemical environment, or tectonics.

Default: false
Description: Create a property type that requires that the instance is encoded inline (applies to ISO 19136:2007 encoding rule). Always set to false in INSPIRE.
isCollection false Values: true | false
Default: false
Description: Identifies the feature type as a feature collection.
noPropertyType false Values: false
Default: false
Description: Surpress creation of a standard property type that supports inline or by-reference encoding (applies to ISO 19136:2007 encoding rule). Always set to false in INSPIRE.
