1) Overview

The OpenGIS® Simple Features Interface Standard (SFS) provides a well-defined and common way for applications to store and access feature data in relational or object-relational databases, so that the data can be used to support other applications through a common feature model, data store and information access interface. OpenGIS Simple Features are geospatial features described using vector data elements such as points, lines and polygons.

Part 1 “Common Architecture" supplies the common feature model for use by applications that will use the Simple Features data stores and access interfaces.

Part 2 provides a standard SQL implementation of the abstract model in Part 1. (Note: The OpenGIS® Simple Features Interface Standards for OLE/COM and CORBA are no longer current and are not provided here.)

The corresponding standard for the Web is the OpenGIS® Web Feature Service Interface Standard http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wfs.
