xls:CircularArc

A CircularArc is a geometric object defined by LIF (MLP 3.0) which is defined by two arcs (r[1] > r[2]), and  two lines that radiate from the center point, at a given start angle and end angle.  As with the definitions for circle and ellipse, this object is defined by its parameters: a center point, two radii, and two angles. This represenation can be used only in 2D.

Attributes

NameOccTypeDescriptionNotes
gml:id [0..1]xsd:IDfrom type gml:AbstractGMLType
srsName [0..1]xsd:anyURIIn general this reference points to a CRS instance of gml:CoordinateReferenceSystemType (see coordinateReferenceSystems.xsd). For well known references it is not required that the CRS description exists at the location the URI points to. If no srsName attribute is given, the CRS must be specified as part of the larger context this geometry element is part of, e.g. a geometric element like point, curve, etc. It is expected that this attribute will be specified at the direct position level only in rare cases.from group gml:SRSReferenceGroup
srsDimension [0..1]xsd:positiveIntegerThe "srsDimension" is the length of coordinate sequence (the number of entries in the list). This dimension is specified by the coordinate reference system. When the srsName attribute is omitted, this attribute shall be omitted.from group gml:SRSReferenceGroup
interpolation [0..1]gml:CurveInterpolationTypeThe attribute "interpolation" specifies the curve interpolation mechanism used for this segment. This mechanism uses the control points and control parameters to determine the position of this curve segment. For an ArcByCenterPoint the interpolation is fixed as "circularArcCenterPointWithRadius".Fixed value is "circularArcCenterPointWithRadius".
numArc [1..1]xsd:integerSince this type describes always a single arc, the attribute is fixed to "1".Fixed value is "1".
