|
|
Reading the Catalog Service Specification 2.0.2 the syntax for distance units is
<distance units> ::= “feet” | “meters” | “statute miles” |
“nautical miles” | “kilometers”
and it does have the following comment
/*this set of units is just an example. The real list of distance unit
must be developed*/
Is there any debate or progress about this list of units?
thanks in advance _________________ Mauricio Pazos

Mauricio -
This is being fully resolved for catalogue 3.0. Other OGC standards, such as GML and Observations and Measurements use UCUM - http://unitsofmeasure.org/. You may assume that this is the approach that will be used in Catalogue.
