Description / Abstract:
This standard describes requirements for the interchange of
geographic data products that represent terrain, obstacles, and
aerodrome mapping features. These requirements apply the concepts
of the ISO 19100 series of standards to previously published
requirements for data content and quality. Specifically, the
normative part of this standard represents an intermediate
specification level between abstract conceptual requirements
(EUROCAE ED-99D / RTCA DO-272D, EUROCAE ED-98C / RTCA DO-276C, and
ISO 19115) and a compliant interchange implementation.
In addition this interchange standard provides an informative
AMXM XML Schema which for example may be used to implement AMDB
information services. It is not the intent of this interchange
standard to impose any physical interchange format on the user.
This is solely to be agreed upon by the involved parties as may be
the case within a community of interest using SWIM. However, the
provided AMXM XML Schema may be used to implement a compliant
information service.
Feature relationships, data capture rules, and structural
constraints are not considered within the scope of the data
interchange standard. It is assumed that they are applied in
accordance with EUROCAE ED-99D / RTCA DO-272D and EUROCAE ED-98C /
RTCA DO-276C during the data production process. It is the
responsibility of a given data interchange implementation to ensure
that structural requirements are met.
