This SensorML schema documentation was provided using XMLSpy. It provides a simple means to explore the schema using a tree structure and annotation familiar to anyone who has used XMLSpy (for those of you who are not familiar with XMLSpy, I will try to create a legend to help you interpret things).

NOTE: To remove some unnecessary complexities, this documentation is based on a schema version which only uses a profile of GML and only includes elements that are likely to be used and which make sense. If you notice something missing that needs to be there, please notify me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Also send any suggestions.

This documentation includes elements from: sensorML, sweCommon, gml, ic, and xlink schema. Links to common objects are provided for convenience, or you can get to any element using the "All elements" link:
