Geographic information — Classification systems — Part 2: Land Cover Meta Language (LCML)

This document specifies a Land Cover Meta Language (LCML) expressed as a UML metamodel that allows different Land Cover classification systems to be described based on physiognomic aspects. This document recognizes that a number of Land Cover classification systems exist. It provides a common reference structure for the comparison and integration of data for any generic Land Cover classification system, but does not intend to replace those classification systems.

Information géographique — Systèmes de classification — Partie 2: Métalangage pour l’occupation des sols (LCML)

Le présent document spécifie un métalangage pour l'occupation des sols (LCML) exprimé sous forme d'un métamodèle UML qui permet de décrire différents systèmes de classification d'occupation du sol d'après leurs aspects physionomiques. Le présent document reconnaît qu'il existe un grand nombre de systèmes de classification d'occupation du sol. Il donne une structure de référence commune pour la comparaison et l'intégration de données pour tout système générique de classification d'occupation du sol, mais n'est pas destiné à remplacer ces systèmes de classification.
