Description:
Defines NIEM adapter types for external geospatial components defined by OGC, LIF, LandXML, IAI, and ANSI. This schema defines NIEM adapter types for external geospatial components defined by OGC, LIF, LandXML, IAI, and ANSI. It also defines property types and elements according to the conventions required by the Geography Markup Language (GML) specification. These property types and elements allow niem geospatial adapter elements to be referenced from GML conformant application schemas. This situation is described in external-standards.pdf as Case 2: External schemas reference, import, and use NIEM components., but not addressed by that document. However, it applies to the development of the GML application schemas that must in most cases be developed to effectively use GML in niem IEPs. Note for schema readers: The XML/Schema specification does not require processing implementations to transitively import definitions from imported schemas. To assure that all required definitions are available, a schema must re-import the schemas that are imported by the schemas it imports. Such re-imports are noted in the documentation.
