Geographic information - Core profile of the spatial schema (ISO 19137:2007)

This International Standard defines a core profile of the spatial schema specified in ISO 19107 that specifies, in accordance with ISO 19106, a minimal set of geometric elements necessary for the efficient creation of application schemata.
This International Standard supports many of the spatial data formats and description languages already developed and in broad use within several nations or liaison organizations.
NOTE Data modelled with this International Standard are consistent with spatial models already developed and used by a number of organizations; see Annex A.
