Geomark Attributes

The following table describes the attributes of a geomark returned from the download geomark resources.

Attribute Name Description
id The unique identifier of the geomark
url The URL to the HTML page describing the geomark and supported output formats
geometryType The type of geometry contained in the geomark
numPolygons The total number of geometry parts in the geomark
numParts The total number of geometry parts in the geomark
createDate The date the geomark was created
expiryDate The date the geomark will expire and be deleted, or null if this geomark is registered with a BC Government application and will be kept as long as it remains registered.
minX The minimum x (east) of the geomark's bounding box
minY The minimum y (south) of the geomark's bounding box
maxX The maximum x (north) of the geomark's bounding box
maxY The minimum y (north) of the geomark's bounding box
centroidX The x coordinate of the centroid of the geomark's geometries
centroidY The y coordinate of the centroid of the geomark's geometries
numVertices The total number of vertices from the geomark's geometries (including holes)
length The total length in metres of the geomark's geometries
area The total area in square metres of the geomark's geometries
isValid Flag indicating if the geometry is valid acording to the OGC simple feature specifications.
validationError Description of the validation error if the geometry is valid acording to the OGC simple feature specifications.
isSimple Flag indicating if the geometry is simple acording to the OGC simple feature specifications.
isRobust Flag indicating if coordinates of the geometry are less than the tolerance away from the edges of the geometry.
minimumClearance The Minimum Clearance is a measure of what magnitude of perturbation of the vertices of a geometry can be tolerated before the geometry becomes topologically invalid.
