Geographic information - Classification systems - Part 1: Classification system structure (ISO 19144-1:2009)

ISO 19144-1:2009 establishes the structure of a geographic information classification system, together with the mechanism for defining and registering the classifiers for such a system. It specifies the use of discrete coverages to represent the result of applying the classification system to a particular area and defines the technical structure of a register of classifiers in accordance with ISO 19135.

Information géographique - Systèmes de classification - Partie 1: Structure de système de classification (ISO 19144-1:2009)

L'ISO 19144-1:2009 établit la structure d'un système de classification d'informations géographiques, ainsi que le mécanisme de définition et d'enregistrement des classificateurs pour un tel système. Elle spécifie l'utilisation de couvertures discrètes pour représenter le résultat de l'application du système de classification à une zone particulière et définit la structure technique d'un registre de classificateurs, conformément à l'ISO 19135.

Geografske informacije - Klasifikacijski sistemi - 1. del: Struktura klasifikacijskega sistema (ISO 19144-1:2009)

Ta del standarda ISO 19144 vzpostavlja strukturo klasifikacijskega sistema geografskih informacij z mehanizmom za določanje in registracijo klasifikatorjev za tak sistem. Določa uporabo diskretnega pokritja za predstavitev rezultatov uporabe klasifikacijskega sistema na določenem območju ter določa tehnično strukturo registra ali klasifikatorjev v skladu s standardom ISO 19135. Struktura se lahko uporablja za razvoj specifičnih klasifikacijskih sistemov, ki obravnavajo posamezna področja uporabe in so opredeljeni v drugih delih standarda ISO 19144.

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.
ISO 19144-1 was prepared jointly by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations and
Technical Committee ISO/TC 211, Geographic information/Geomatics under a cooperative agreement
between the two organizations.
ISO 19144 consists of the following parts, under the general title Geographic information — Classification
systems:
⎯ Part 1: Classification system structure

ISO 19144-1:2009(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 19144 is based on publications of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United
[1][2]
Nations . The first in a series of International Standards related to geographic classification systems, it
defines the structure of such systems, together with the mechanism for defining and registering classifiers.
Since there are many different possible application areas, there is no single classification system that will
serve all needs. The method by which classifiers are defined depends upon the application area. In addition,
the classifiers used within a particular application area might not be adequate for all situations encountered
within that application area and could need to be augmented over time. To facilitate extension of the set of
classifiers in a particular application area, classifiers are registered in a register structure compliant with
ISO 19135. This allows the set of classifiers to be maintained. The use of the ISO 19135 registration
mechanism allows for separate registers to be defined for different sets of classifiers within multiple
information communities, thereby satisfying application needs. This approach allows for independence
between information communities, but also allows relationships to be developed between different
classification systems that potentially allow the conversion, or partial conversion, of data from one
classification system to another, or the fusion of data from two separate sources.
The concept of classification systems is well known in the geographic information community. A classification
system can be used to subdivide any geographic area into small units, each of which carries an identifier that
describes its type. The results can then be represented as a discrete coverage as described in ISO 19123.
Many such classification systems can be defined to address any geographic area. Different application areas
and different inf
