Specification Profiles
The following documents are profiles of other OpenGISÆ Specifications. Although they appear on the respective pages of their "parent" specifications, this view is provided for quickly accessing specific profiles. To access the parent specification simply use the link provided below the profile description.

Geography Markup Language (GML) simple features profile (with Corrigendum) |
2.0 | 10-100r3 | Linda van den Brink, Clemens Portele, Panagiotis (Peter) A. Vretanos | 2011-05-11 |
| This approved OGC Implementation Standard defines a Simple Features profile of the Geography Markup Language version 3.2. This Simple Features Profile has been aligned with the OGC Simple Features standard for SQL version 1.2. Simple Features include: Point, Curve (LineString), Surface (Polygon), Geometry, MultiPoint, MultiCurve, MultiSurface, and MultiGeometry. The detailed abstract model for OGC features and geometry can be found in the OGC Abstract Specification, Topic Volume 1: Features (which is equivalent to ISO 19107). This Simple Features profile of GML began as a product of OGC’s Interoperability Program: a global, collaborative, hands-on engineering and testing program designed to deliver prototype technologies and proven candidate standards into the OGC’s Specification Development Program. In OGC Interoperability Initiatives, international teams of technology providers work together to solve specific geo-processing interoperability problems posed by Initiative. | ||||

GML 3.1.1 common CRSs profile |
1.0.0 | 05-095r1 | Arliss Whiteside | 2006-07-18 |
| This document defines a profile of the Geography Markup Language (GML) version 3.1.1 for encoding definitions of commonly-used Coordinate Reference Systems (CRSs) plus related coordinate Conversions. | ||||

GML 3.1.1 CRS support profile |
1.0.0 | 05-094r1 | Arliss Whiteside | 2006-07-18 |
| This document defines a profile of the Geography Markup Language (GML) version 3.1.1 for supporting other profiles for encoding definitions of Coordinate Reference Systems (CRSs) and Coordinate Operations. This profile can be used without a GML Application Schema, and such use is assumed in this document. | ||||

GML 3.1.1 grid CRSs profile |
1.0.0 | 05-096r1 | Arliss Whiteside | 2006-07-18 |
| This document defines a profile of the Geography Markup Language (GML) version 3.1.1 for encoding definitions of grid coverage (including image) Coordinate Reference Systems (CRSs) plus related coordinate Transformations. This document also specifies some Universal Resource Names (URNs) for definitions in the "ogc" URN namespace, in addition to those specified in [OGC 05-010]. Additional specific URNs are defined for definitions of the datums, coordinate systems, and coordinate system axes which are often used in definitions of grid and image CRSs. | ||||

GML 3.1.1 simple dictionary profile |
1.0.0 | 05-099r2 | Arliss Whiteside | 2006-07-18 |
| This document defines a profile of the Geography Markup Language (GML) version 3.1.1 for encoding simple dictionaries. This profile can be used without a GML Application Schema, and such use is assumed in this document. | ||||
