GML3 (and maybe wfs1.1? haven't looked) encode ISO 19108. This can not only handle "calandars", but ordinal reference systems. We've made GeoAPI interfaces for 19108 and a partial implementation (calandar-only) which needs to be dropped into the geotools code base. However, this does bring to light a potential issue: is there a single orthodox FeatureModel<->XML encoding in the code base? We may have to factor that out so that we can have a GML2 plugin coexist with a GML3.1.1 plugin, coexisting with a 19139 plugin, coexisting with custom schema encoding plugin (ala 19118). None of the following are <xs:date> etc. <gml:timePosition>2002-11-25T13:20:20</gml:timePosition> <gml:timePosition indeterminatePosition="after">1994</gml:timePosition> <gml:timePosition indeterminatePosition="now"></gml:timePosition> <gml:timePosition frame=”http://my.big.org/TRS/GPS”>25876321.01 </gml:timePosition> <gml:timePosition frame="http://my.big.org/TRS/archaeology"> http://my.history.org/eras/bronzeAge </gml:timePosition> <gml:timePosition frame=”http://my.big.org/TRS/calendars/japanese” calendarEraName="Meiji">0085- 03</gml:timePosition> Bryce ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
