Scope

This part of ISO 19170 supports the definition of:

  • a Discrete Global Grid System Core comprising:

         - a reference system using geometry with zonal identifiers, and
         - functions providing import, export and topological query,

  • Common Classes for spatio-temporal geometry, topology, zones, and zonal identifiers based on ISO 19111 coordinate systems. The spatio-temporal scope is constrained to:

          - spatial elements that are invariant through all time, and
          - temporal elements that are invariant across all space.

  • Equal-Area Earth Reference Systems (EAERSs) for Equal-Area Earth DGGS.
