Class SamplingObservation (a subclass of OM_Observation) provides a general purpose observation type.<br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It enforces the following additional constraints:<br /></p><p>- 'featureOfInterest' shall refer to an entity of type SF_SpatialSamplingFeature (from ISO 19156), or subclass thereof; and <br /></p><p>- 'procedure' shall refer to an entity of type Process (from METCE), or subclass thereof<br /></p><p><br /></p><p>SamplingObservation is intended for use where measurement of physical phenomena is not the goal of the procedure. For example, the procedure executed to define SIGMET reports results in the identification of areas of turbulence, icing or other meteorological phenomena.<br /></p>
Element Source Role Target Role
«FeatureType» SF_SpatialSamplingFeature
Class  
Name: propertyValueProvider
 
Name: featureOfInterest
The association role 'featureOfInterest' is further constrained to refer to an entity of type 'SF_SpatialSamplingFeature' (from ISO 19156). In all cases identified thus far in meteorology, it appears useful to describe an observation, measurement or forecast with respect to the sampling regime (e.g. the Sampling Feature) and indirectly refer to the real-world entity for which the Sampling Feature is a proxy.

«FeatureType» Process
Class  
Name: generatedObservation
 
Name: procedure
The association role 'procedure' is further constrained to refer to an entity of type Process (from WMO METCE). This ensures that a valid concrete implementation of OM_Process is supplied.

Tag Value
byValuePropertyType false
Details:
Values: true,false
Default: false
Description: Create a property type that requires that the instance is encoded inline (applies to ISO 19136:2007 encoding rule). Always set to false in INSPIRE.
isCollection false
Details:
Values: true,false
Default: false
Description: Identifies the feature type as a feature collection.
noPropertyType false
Details:
Values: true,false
Default: false
Description: Surpress creation of a standard property type that supports inline or by-reference encoding (applies to ISO 19136:2007 encoding rule). Always set to false in INSPIRE.
