A GeoRaster Metadata XML Schema

This appendix provides the XML schema definition that is used for GeoRaster metadata. The following is the definition of the GeoRaster metadata XML schema. (You can also see this definition by querying the SDO_GEOR_XMLSCHEMA_TABLE table, which is described in Section 2.5.)

    Spatial extent (footprint) is recorded as an attribute of GeoRaster object. 
    ts type is SDO_GEOMETRY. So it is not included in the metadata
    The cell space coordinates are named as (row, column, vertical)
    The model space coordinates are named as (x, y, z)

    For multispectral remote sensing images, each band is optionally

    The BRS is modeled by formulas for hyperspectral imagery
    based on number of spectral segments, min and max wavelength
    and number of bands for each segment.
    Detailed radiometric info will be added in the future.

    For each sub-layer the layerNumber is a positive integer, i.e., layers are
    logically numbered from 1 to n if the size of the specified layerDimension is
    n. The layerDimensionOrdinate of each sublayer must be in the range of the
