RESULTS Submission Guide (v3)
1. OVERVIEW
This document is a guide for creating submissions for the RESULTS application. It is
intended to assist submission authors in producing valid submission documents and as a
guide for developers that will be creating automated tools for this purpose.
The components of a valid RESULTS submission are described in the order they should
appear in a submission document and examples are provided for each. A Business Rules
section is also included that discusses the business rules, regulations and restrictions in
regards to the data being submitted.
1.1
WHAT IS A SUBMISSION ?
A submission is an XML document that is uploaded via the ESF website for processing by
application specific systems, in this case Results. It allows both attribute and spatial data to
be submitted in a single file. Spatial data will be embedded using GML.
A RESULTS submission document can contain:
 Client information
 Opening identification & attributes
 Tenure data
 Stocking standards
 Disturbances
 Silviculture activities
 Forest Cover data
 Milestone declarations
1.2
XML? GML?
Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a language for documents that contain structured
data. It uses a format that is easily readable by both humans and computers and is a
standard supported by the W3C, the standards body for the World Wide Web. It has
emerged as the primary format for encoding structured information. Many tools are
available for authoring, translating and viewing XML documents.
Geography Markup Language (GML) is a subset of XML that allows for the encoding of
geographic information; including both the spatial and non-spatial properties of geographic
features.
1.3
WHO CAN MAKE A SUBMI SSION?
Clients of the Ministry of Forests (MOF) and Ministry of Sustainable Resource Management
(MSRM) can make ESF submissions.
Though it is not strictly necessary, users who are familiar with XML, GML, or even HTML
should find the creation of these documents very straightforward.
If
you
are
unfamiliar
with
any
of
these
acronyms,
the
ESF
website
(http://extranet.for.gov.bc.ca/esf) has some resources that may be helpful.

RESULTS Submission Guide (v3)
HOW DO I MAKE A SUBM ISSION?
1. Create the document, following the instructions in this guide
(samples are provided in this document and are available for
download on the website)
Client
------Create the
submission
document
2. Save it as an .XML file (a text file with an extension of .XML)
3. Logon and upload the document via the ESF submission
website
The document structure and geometry data will be validated
immediately upon upload. You’ll be notified if there’s a problem
so that you can fix it and try again.
Once it’s passed the initial validation, the submission is sent to
the appropriate business system that will apply further checks to
the actual content. If those fail, the submitter will receive a
message through the website requesting it be fixed.

2. DOCUMENT STRUCTURE
The diagram below describes the overall structure of a submissions document. Not all
components are mandatory and some can be represented more than once, e.g. multiple
submission items (Openings) can be contained within a single document.
Detailed discussions of each component can be found in the “Component Details” section.

Section 9.2
Each submission document starts with information required to carry out correct XML
processing. This information will be identical for each submission document. Templates
can be downloaded through the ESF web site at http://extranet.for.gov.bc.ca/esf/
The ESF submission metadata includes contact information for the submitting party.
This is required to process the submission.
The Submission Content header signifies the beginning of the submission content. It
includes required structure tags as well as some optional descriptive information.
Each submission must provide data indicating the source of the submission and how it
is to be processed.
An Opening indicates the administrative boundary of an area of land on which
silviculture activities are planned and completed. Multiple Openings can be contained in
a single submission document.
Opening Key *

3. DATA TYPES
There are several data types that have specific requirements. This section describes the
proper syntax and formatting to be used when entering content for these types.
3.1
ANYURI
This is a standard XML data type for representing a Uniform Resource Identifier. For
the purposes of RESULTS they are used for email addresses; the “mailto:” prefix
should be used as in the example.
Example:
<rst:emailAddress>mailto:[email protected]</rst:emailAddress>
3.2
BOOLEAN
In XML, Boolean (logical) values can be given as either 1/0 or true/false. The name
of a Boolean field always indicates the effect of a true value.
Thus
“openingCentricIndicator” indicates that if the field has a value of true, the submission
should be processed on an opening-by-opening basis. The effect of a false value is
provided in the documentation for the field.
Example:
<rst:validationIndicator>1</rst:validationIndicator>
3.3
CODE TYPES
Data types that have the suffix “CodeType” can contain only predefined values. Valid
content for these types is defined in the Code Tables section.
3.4
DATE
In XML, dates must always be given in the format YYYY-MM-DD.
indicates April 10, 2003.
Thus 2003-04-10
Example:
<rst:declarationDate>2002-05-10</rst:declarationDate>
3.5
GYEAR
This is a standard XML data type for representing a specific Gregorian calendar year.
For the purposes of RESULTS, the type should contain a positive, four-digit number.
Example:
<rst:fislcaYear>2002</rst:fiscalYear>
Page 10 of 49
Ministry of Forests
3.6
RESULTS Submission Guide (v3)
TELEPHONE NUMBERS
Telephone numbers use the custom data type, “TelephoneNumberType”. A valid
telephone number must be 10 digits, starting with the area code.
Example:
<rst:phonenumber>6042515612</rst:phonenumber>
3.7
GEOMETRY
Geometry content is made up of two components: spatial metadata and the feature
itself. Metadata is information about the data itself, for example how it was captured.
The tags for both components are mandatory but the content is optional.
ESF will validate several types of geometry. For RESULTS, the acceptable types are:





3.7.1
Point
Linestring
Polygon
MultiPolygon
Polygon with multiple holes

RESULTS Submission Guide (v3)
GML
Geometry is represented as GML; the rst:extentOf tags are used to delineate the GML tags.
The following exemplify the syntax for all geometry types that are acceptable in a RESULTS
submission document.
Spatial Coordinate Systems:
SRS NAME
ESF
requires
spatial
objects
in
submissions to specify the coordinate
system used to represent them.
The
“srsName” attribute is used to define this.
Note that it is permissible (but not
recommended) that different coordinate
systems can be used within the same
submission. Refer to the following table in
the Code Tables for valid entries.

4. CONVENTIONS
Each section that follows defines a separate component of a RESULTS XML document.
Indications of whether the component is required or optional are given; omitting a required
section will result in an invalid submission.
Each field is described for every component, again including indications of whether the field
is required or optional. Data types are listed with maximum sizes in following parentheses
where applicable, for example: Alphanumeric (3). Precision is identified by a further set of
parentheses, for example: Decimal (6) (2).
More information on specific data types can be found in the Data Types section.
+ signs indicate collapsed sections, i.e. sub-sections that are contained within the section
being discussed. Each collapsed section is either described in turn in succeeding subsections (where they are specific to the parent component), or in the Data Types section
(where they are common to several components). Where subsections are small, they are
not broken out into separate sections, but are distinguished as shaded rows in the tables.
XML uses tags to delineate information. Tags begin with the field or section name in a set of
angled brackets and end with the same text in another set, preceded by a slash. The
content is contained between the two. For example:
<tag>
content
</tag>
Tip: Missing, or misnamed, end tags are a common problem. Check that all your tags have
corresponding end tags before submitting.
Tags are often nested within each other to represent hierarchical information, for example:
<Car>
<manufacturer>Honda</manufacturer>
<colour>Red</colour>
</Car>
Tip: XML is case sensitive. If a tag is expected to read “MultiPolygon”, but is entered as
“multipolygon”, the validation will fail.
For more information on XML and GML, please refer to the ESF website where you can find
links to several useful resources.
