      • gml:descriptionReferencegmlBase-extract-v3_2_1.xsd:107 0..1 gml:ReferenceType

        The value of this property is a remote text description of the object. The xlink:href attribute of the gml:descriptionReference property references the external description.

      • gml:identifiergmlBase-extract-v3_2_1.xsd:117 0..1 gml:CodeWithAuthorityType

        Often, a special identifier is assigned to an object by the maintaining authority with the intention that it is used in references to the object For such cases, the codeSpace shall be provided. That identifier is usually unique either globally or within an application domain. gml:identifier is a pre-defined property for such identifiers.

      • gml:namegmlBase-extract-v3_2_1.xsd:112 0..unbounded gml:CodeType

        The gml:name property provides a label or identifier for the object, commonly a descriptive name. An object may have several names, typically assigned by different authorities. gml:name uses the gml:CodeType content model. The authority for a name is indicated by the value of its (optional) codeSpace attribute. The name may or may not be unique, as determined by the rules of the organization responsible for the codeSpace. In common usage there will be one name per authority, so a processing application may select the name from its preferred codeSpace.
