GML (UK)

The GML-format is used by the Ordnance Survey of the United Kingdom (see http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk). GML is a XML-dialect extended by spatial data. Thus, GML can be understood as a world-wide applicable standard language for the generation and the communication of geographical data.

In case layers are used those can be addressed to the corresponding CadnaA object types in the usual way. Via the button „Options“ the following GML-specific settings are available:

• Object Layer (see Allocate Object Type to Layer)
• Import only Section (see Import only Section)
• Simplify Geo automatically (see Simplify Geometry in the manual „Introduction to CadnaA“)
• Transformation (see Coordinate Transformation)
