Description : These schema componenet were desgined to encapsulate and validate
: GPS/GLONASS antenna equipment for use/reference in
: other XML document types, such as IGS-style Site
: Information Logs, and GPS/Geodetic Observation/Occupation Log
: from the National Geodetic Survey (NGS).
:
: The data model used in this XSD aims at uniquely-identifying
: a given (single) GPS/GLONASS antenna. This entity could then
: be contained within a parent entity which attributes other
: aspects of where, when, by whom, and why this particular piece
: of equipment was used or referenced.
:
Notes : All distance/length measurements/values are assumed to be in meters.
: All date/time measurements/values are assumed to be of the
: ISO8601 variant "CCYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ" (UTC)
Pulling in schema components for generic geodetic equipment
structures.
Instantiable, non-substituble, global complex type
representing a GNSS Antenna uniquely-identified
by a serial number and IGS model code.
Instantiable, non-substituble, global complex type
representing the settings (transient properties)
of a gnss antenna.
Refers to the length (in meters) of the cable
used to connect the antenna to other gnss equipment
(typically a gnss receiver or set of receivers).
Refers to the type of cable
used to connect the antenna to other gnss equipment
(typically a gnss receiver or set of receivers).
Instantiable, non-substituble, global complex type
representing the measurement of a distance between
a specified location on a gnss antenna and another
location of choice.
Refers to the distance (+|-) between the geodetic
reference point of the associated monument, and a
chosen reference point on the antenna.
Non-instantiable, non-substituable, non-extendable or
restrictable global simple type representing a valid
IGS antenna model code.
