Properties Definition Type
elevation The vertical distance of a point or a level, on or affixed to the surface of the earth, measured from mean sea level. ValAltitudeType
verticalResolution A distance corresponding to the number of units or digits to which a measured or calculated value is expressed and used. ValDistanceType
verticalDatum The set of reference points or a mathematical model of the Earth's surface (a datum) against which vertical position measurements are made as basis for measuring elevations. CodeVerticalDatumType
verticalConfidenceLevel A statistical measure of the estimated confidence with which the data captured met its required accuracy. A required confidence level of 90% indicates that 90% of the measured point(s) should meet their respective accuracy requirements.

Integer

verticalAccuracy The difference between the recorded elevation of an entity and its true elevation referenced to the same vertical datum expressed as a linear error at 95 percent probability. ValDistanceType
horizontalResolution A distance corresponding to the number of units or digits to which a measured or calculated value is expressed and used. ValDistanceType
horizontalConfidenceLevel A statistical measure of the estimated confidence with which the data captured met its required accuracy. A required confidence level of 90% indicates that 90% of the measured point(s) should meet their respective accuracy requirements.

Integer

horizontalAccuracy The difference between the recorded horizontal coordinates of an entity and its true position referenced to the same geodetic datum expressed as a circular error at 95 percent probability. ValDistanceType
geoidUndulation The distance of the geoid above (positive) or below (negative) the mathematical reference ellipsoid at the location of the surface. ValDistanceType
