org.opengis.metadata.spatial (Geotools modules 21.0 API)

Interface Summary
Interface	Description
Dimension	Axis properties.
GeometricObjects	Number of objects, listed by geometric object type, used in the dataset.
Georectified	Grid whose cells are regularly spaced in a geographic (i.e., lat / long) or map coordinate system defined in the Spatial Referencing System (SRS) so that any cell in the grid can be geolocated given its grid coordinate and the grid origin, cell spacing, and orientation indication of whether or not geographic.
Georeferenceable	Grid with cells irregularly spaced in any given geographic/map projection coordinate system, whose individual cells can be geolocated using geolocation information supplied with the data but cannot be geolocated from the grid properties alone.
GridSpatialRepresentation	Basic information required to uniquely identify a resource or resources.
SpatialRepresentation	Digital mechanism used to represent spatial information.
VectorSpatialRepresentation	Information about the vector spatial objects in the dataset.

Class Summary
Class	Description
CellGeometry	Code indicating whether grid data is point or area.
DimensionNameType	Name of the dimension.
GeometricObjectType	Name of point and vector spatial objects used to locate zero-, one-, and twodimensional spatial locations in the dataset.
PixelOrientation	Point in a pixel corresponding to the Earth location of the pixel.
SpatialRepresentationType	Method used to represent geographic information in the dataset.
TopologyLevel	Degree of complexity of the spatial relationships.

Package org.opengis.metadata.spatial Description

Spatial representation information (includes grid and vector representation). The following is adapted from OpenGIS® Metadata (Topic 11) specification.

This package contains information concerning the mechanisms used to represent spatial information in a dataset. The spatial representation entity is optional and can be specified as grid spatial representation and vector spatial representation. Each of the specified entities contains mandatory and optional metadata elements. When further description is necessary, vector spatial representation may be specified as georectified. and/or georeferenceable entity.
