FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Description of the method of referencing and the mechanism used to represent graphic information in a data set. This information consists of the type of storage technique used, the number of items in the data set, and the format in which the data is stored.

SUBFIELD CODES

$a - Direct reference method
System of objects used to directly represent space in the data set.
352 ##$aVector.
$b - Object type
Specific type of point, vector, or raster graphic objects used to locate geometric locations in a data set.
352 ##$aPoint :$bEntity point.
352 ##$aVector :$bNetwork chain, non-planar graph.
352 ##$aRaster :$bpixel.
$c - Object count
Number of each point or vector object type used in a data set.
352 ##$aVector :$bGT-polygon composed of chains$c(70).
$d - Row count
Maximum number of raster objects along the ordinate (y) axis. Row count is used with rectangular raster objects.
$e - Column count
Maximum number of raster objects along the abscissa (x) axis. Column count is used with rectangular raster objects.
$f - Vertical count
Maximum number of raster objects along the vertical (z) axis. Vertical count is used with rectangular volumetric raster objects (voxels).
$g - VPF topology level
Level of completeness of the topology carried by the data set. The levels are defined in U.S. Department of Defense, 1992, Vector Product Format (MIL-STD-600006) (Philadelphia, PA: Department of Defense, Defense Printing Service Detachment Office).
$i - Indirect reference description
Graphic features, addressing schemes, or other means through which locations are referenced.
352 ##$aVector :$i100 year floodplain boundary, 500 year floodplain boundary.
$q - Format of the digital image
Name of the format in which the digital image is stored.
352 ##$aVector :$bPoint$c(13671),$bstring$c(20171),$bGT-polygon composed of chains$c(13672) ;$qARC/INFO export.
352 ##$aRaster :$bpixel$d(5,000 x$e5,000) ;$qTIFF.
$6 - Linkage
See description of this subfield in Appendix A: Control Subfields.
$8 - Field link and sequence number
See description of this subfield in Appendix A: Control Subfields.
