Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Introduction
Geographic information contains spatial references which relate the features represented in the data to
positions in the real world. Spatial references fall into two categories:
those using coordinates;
those based on geographic identifiers.
This International Standard deals only with spatial referencing by coordinates. Spatial referencing by
geographic identifiers is the subject of ISO 19112, Geographic information ― Spatial referencing by
geographic identifiers.
Coordinates are unambiguous only when the coordinate reference system to which those coordinates are
related has been fully defined. A coordinate reference system is a coordinate system which has a reference to
the Earth. This International Standard describes the elements that are necessary to define fully various types
of coordinate systems and coordinate reference systems applicable to geographic information. The subset of
elements required is partially dependent upon the type of coordinates. This International Standard also
includes optional fields to allow for the inclusion of non-essential coordinate reference system information. The
elements are intended to be both machine and human readable. A set of coordinates on the same coordinate
reference system requires one coordinate reference system description.
In addition to describing a coordinate reference system, this International Standard provides for the
description of a coordinate transformation or coordinate conversion between two different coordinate
reference systems. With such information, geographic data referred to different coordinate reference systems
can be merged together for integrated manipulation. Alternatively, an audit trail of coordinate reference system
manipulations can be maintained.

Geographic information — Spatial referencing by coordinates
1 Scope
This International Standard defines the conceptual schema for the description of spatial referencing by
coordinates. It describes the minimum data required to define one-, two- and three-dimensional coordinate
reference systems. It allows additional descriptive information to be provided. It also describes the information
required to change coordinate values from one coordinate reference system to another.
This International Standard is applicable to producers and users of geographic information. Although it is
applicable to digital geographic data, its principles can be extended to many other forms of
...
