Geographic information - Positioning services (ISO 19116:2019)

This document specifies the data structure and content of an interface that permits communication between position-providing device(s) and position-using device(s) enabling the position-using device(s) to obtain and unambiguously interpret position information and determine, based on a measure of the degree of reliability, whether the resulting position information meets the requirements of the intended use.
A standardized interface for positioning allows the integration of reliable position information obtained from non-specific positioning technologies and is useful in various location-focused information applications, such as surveying, navigation, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), and location-based services (LBS).

Geoinformation - Positionierung (ISO 19116:2019)

Information géographique - Services de positionnement (ISO 19116:2019)

Le présent document indique la structure des données et le contenu d'une interface qui permet la communication entre un ou plusieurs dispositifs de mesure de position et un ou plusieurs dispositifs utilisant les données de position de sorte que ces derniers puissent obtenir et interpréter les informations de position sans ambiguïté et déterminer, en se fondant sur une mesure du degré de fiabilité, si les informations de position qui en résultent répondent aux exigences de l'utilisation prévue.
Une interface normalisée de positionnement permet l'intégration d'informations de position fiables obtenues à partir de technologies de positionnement non spécifiques et est utile dans diverses applications utilisant des informations ciblées géographiquement, comme l'arpentage, la navigation, les systèmes de transport intelligents (STI) et les services géoréférencés (LBS).

Geografske informacije - Lokacijske storitve (ISO 19116:2019)

Ta standard določa strukturo podatkov in vsebino vmesnika za komunikacijo med napravami, ki zagotavljajo položaj, in napravami, ki uporabljajo položaj. Omogoča, da naprave, ki uporabljajo položaj, pridobijo in nedvoumno razlagajo informacije o položaju ter na podlagi stopnje zanesljivosti določijo, ali pridobljena informacija o položaju ustreza zahtevam predvidene uporabe. Standardiziran vmesnik za določanje položaja omogoča integracijo zanesljivih informacij o položaju, pridobljenih iz nespecifičnih tehnologij za pozicioniranje in je uporaben za različne lokacijsko usmerjene vrste uporabe informacij, kot so opazovanje, navigacija, inteligentni transportni sistemi (ITS) in lokacijske storitve (LBS).
