represent uncertainty about the coordinate [2]


1) Can you explain, what are the motives for putting a dimension value directly down to the datatype level. I thought this is just another object property (or qualifier?) like the name, ISO-region, type, source, acquisition date.

2) IMO there is potential confusion between dim as the actual objects size (eg. 20 meter for a building) and dim as a value to control the map scale for showing this object (eg. 200 meter for a building which is really only 20 meter). Maybe it would be more clear if this thing is called "map scale" or the like.
