In a gml:MultiCurveCoverage the domain is partioned into a collection of curves comprising a gml:MultiCurve. The coverage function then maps each curve in the collection to a value in the range set.The content model is identical with gml:DiscreteCoverageType, but that gml:domainSet shall have values gml:MultiCurve.In a gml:MultiCurveCoverage the mapping from the domain to the range is straightforward.- For gml:DataBlock encodings the curves of the gml:MultiCurve are mapped in document order to the tuples of the data block.- For gml:CompositeValue encodings the curves of the gml:MultiCurve are mapped to the members of the composite value in document order.- For gml:File encodings the curves of the gml:MultiCurve are mapped to the records of the file in sequential order.
The attribute gml:id supports provision of a handle for the XML element representing a GML Object. Its use is mandatory for all GML objects. It is of XML type ID, so is constrained to be unique in the XML document within which it occurs.
