Guidelines for ISO/TC 211 editing committees (EC) – Internal rules
”The EMC is responsible for the editing of the DIS in cooperation with the TC
secretariat. To resolve comments received at the DIS stage, the chairman and editor
of the EC will be consulted, and if there are technical comments to resolve, a
meeting of the EC may be called.”
Depending on the number and nature of comments on DIS 19142 / DIS 19143 an EC
meeting may be required during the next plenary meeting in Canada.

Resolution 385 Requests to the Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. (OGC)
ISO/TC 211 recognizes the recommendations from the Joint Advisory Group and
requests the Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. (OGC) to submit to ISO/TC 211 new
work items for revision of the following standards:
Revision of ISO 19125-2:2004 (ongoing)
Revision of ISO 19128:2005
ISO/TC 211 also requests OGC to submit the following OGC specifications to
ISO/TC 211 as New Work Item proposals:
Web Coverage Service
GeoDRM Reference Model. (ongoing)

Question being raised during the WG4 meeting:
Cooperation with OGC
The work on GML is going on in OGC (SWG), but this is not well known in ISO/TC 211.
This issue has been deferred to the JAG meeting, but may also be an issue for the
strategy meeting.
ISO/TC 211 strategy
Should ISO/TC 211 revise its strategi on what kind of standards that should be
worked out?
Does ISO/TC 211 need (to influence) standards like OWS, or should we leave such
standards to OGC?
STATENS KARTVERK
Potential NWIP’s
During the discussions on Portrayal, two potential work items were proposed:
ISO 19117 Part 2 – Portrayal Service
ISO 19117 Part 3 – Finishing rules
Both Portrayal Service and Finishing Rules are outside the scope of ISO
19117 revision 1.
WG4 welcomes NWIP’s on these issues.

PT-19117 Portrayal report
Meeting Objectives
Review OGC 09-012, Symbology Encoding
Harmonization Engineering Report, April 2009
from OWS-6
OGC compared SE with ISO 19117 Working Draft, January 2009,
IHO and USGS symbology
Engineering report raised some concerns about
19117
Feature schema mapping too complex and not necessary
Too many options forces implementers to accommodate them all
or reduces interoperability
No concept of layers in 19117
Other concerns
STATENS KARTVERK
PT-19117 Portrayal report
Accomplishments
Good participation from wider community than
usual
Main discussion was on the role of schema
mapping functions from geographic features to
portrayal features/objects/symbols?
Developed terminology paper that serves as a
consensus document within project team for
way forward
STATENS KARTVERK
PT-19117 Portrayal report
Feature transformation
Mapping between geographic features and portrayal
objects is fundamental to geographic portrayal
 Functions map from Geographic feature type to portrayal object type.
Symbol is part of the portrayal object type
 Requirement is key to portrayal, in scope of 19117
 How to do these functions outside scope of 19117
Schema to schema mapping should be addressed in a
different standard since it is not unique to portrayal
ISO 19117 will have an extension and conformance level
for “rules-based mapping”
 People can use it but it’s not the only way to map features to portrayal
objects

Topics and surprises
Terms
references must be dated
Check for use and dropped unused (abbrev.)
Topology –
mod 2 rule is wrong
19107 has different 9-matrix (“BIE” not “IBE”)
Annotation text is not portrayal
Lacks specific purpose so is useful for a lot
Explanation needs to added to introduction (?)
Harmonization with SQL/MM
Add “arc strings”
Fix well know text
