Feature and Filter
Package	Description
org.opengis.feature.type

Java interfaces derived from specifications of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). The interfaces were created from UML diagrams found in the ISO and OGC specifications. This javadoc contains only the classes and interfaces to be submitted to the OGC GeoAPI 3.0 Standard Working Group for approval. Additional work not subject to OGC attention for GeoAPI 3.0 are listed in the javadoc of pending API.

Requirements

Java 7 or later.
JSR-363 units of measurement API.

Future work

Following interfaces defined in GeoAPI 3.0 are empty place-holders. Their methods are defined in GeoAPI-pending and may be integrated in a future release of GeoAPI core:

The signature of the following methods may change in a future GeoAPI release, depending on progress of org.opengis.temporal and Units of Measurement API:
