The vertical distance from a specified vertical datum to the terrain surface of or
at the base of the feature.
|
Description:
|
If the feature is not supported above the surface by another feature then the base
of the feature is usually located at ground or water level on the downhill/downstream
side. For non-inland water bodies, the water level is usually understood to be Mean
Sea Level (MSL). In the case of a survey marker (monument) this is usually the elevation
assigned to the marker (monument).

The identifier is assigned consecutively (for example: within a map sheet or within
a local area of interest) and begins with the northwest grid square of the UTM reference
system and proceeds from left to right to the east edge of the sheet or area, continuing
consecutively in the same way starting back at the west edge of the next line of UTM
grid squares below those previously completed. The resulting identifiers are used
to index an associated Bridge Information Table.

2
Consists of beams or trusses that project from piers or abutments toward each other
and, when joined directly or by a suspended connecting member, form a bridge span.
The beams or trusses are anchored at one end and unsupported at the other end.
|
girder
|
6
Consists of two or more girders supporting a separate floor or system.
May be assembled as single spans or combined into multiple spans with intermediate
supports.
|
slab

A self-supporting slab.
|
stringerBeam
|
16
Consists of two or more beams supporting a separate floor or system.
The stringers may be in standard rolled shapes in spans up to 90 feet in length and
as beams built-up with welded steel plate in the 60 to 120 foot span range.
|
suspension
|
9
The deck is suspended by hangars from cables attached to and extending between supports.
The supports may be in the form of towers located between the ends of the bridge.
|
towerSuspension
|
7
The deck is suspended by hangars from cables that pass over two (or more) towers and
are anchored by backstays to a firm foundation.
|
transporter
|
12
Consists of towers on each side of the watercourse connected by a system of girders
on which a carriage runs.
|
truss
|
8
Supported by a framework of rafters, posts and struts.
Typically used in long spans from 150 to 1,000 feet or more.
|
bowstringBridge
|
19
A girder bridge consisting of an arch (the 'bow'), a horizontal tie, and a series
of hangars providing additional load-carrying support.
Hangers descend vertically at regular intervals from the cables to the bridge deck.
|
openSpandrelArch
|
1
Arch, where the space above the right and left curves of the arch is open.
|
cableStayed
|
27
The deck is suspended from cables attached directly to tower-like supports.
There are two major classes of cable-stayed bridges, differentiated by how the cables
are connected to the towers. In a parallel attachment design, the cables are made
nearly parallel by having the height of attachment on the tower be similar to the
distance from the pillar along the roadway. In a radial attachment design, the cables
all connect to or pass over the top of the pillar.
|
closedSpandrelArch
|
26
Arch, where the space above the right and left curves of the arch is closed.
|
arch
|
31
Supported by an arch underneath the bridge that directs pressure and weight of the
bridge outward to the supports along the arch.
|
trestle
|
32
Consists of a large number of short spans, supported by splayed vertical elements
to provide lateral rigidity.
Traditionally used mainly for railways and constructed from wood timbers. Twentieth
century construction has eliminated much of the need for trestles by using more extensive
grading and tunneling, however they remain in use as approaches to bridges where required
by the local topography.

GEM-zI007.LZN-singleValue
|
Definition:
|
The dimension of a feature taken along its primary alignment of use and generally
in the horizontal plane.
|
Description:
|
The primary alignment of a feature is its established direction of flow or use (for
example: a road, a power line, a river, a rapid, and/or a bridge). A feature-specific
rule may apply. In the case of a bridge, the length is the distance between the bridge
abutments along the bridge centreline. In the case of a dam, the length is the distance
along the dam crest. If no established direction of flow or use exists then (1) if
the feature is irregular in shape its length is its greatest horizontal dimension
(see Attribute: 'Greatest Horizontal Extent'), else (2) if the feature is regular
in shape then a shape-specific rule may apply: for a rectangular feature, the length
of the longer axis; for a round feature, the diameter.

Description:
|
The primary alignment of a feature is its established direction of flow or use (for
example: a road, a power line right-of-way, a river, rapid, and/or a bridge). A feature-specific
rule may apply. In the case of a bridge, the width is the distance perpendicular to
the bridge centre-line and generally in the horizontal plane. In the case of a dam,
the width is the distance perpendicular to (across the) the dam crest. If no such
direction of flow or use exists then (1) if the feature is irregular in shape its
width is taken perpendicular to the direction of its greatest horizontal dimension
(see Attribute: 'Greatest Horizontal Extent'), else (2) if the feature is regular
in shape then a shape-specific rule may apply: for a rectangular feature, the length
of the shorter axis; for a round feature, the diameter.

The vertical distance measured from the lowest point of the base of the feature at
ground or water level (downhill/downstream side) to the tallest point of the feature.
|
Description:
|
For non-inland water bodies, the water level is usually understood to be Mean Sea
Level (MSL). Note that the feature may be supported above the surface by another feature
(for example: a tower supported by a building) and as a consequence the value of the
Height Above Surface Level is different (larger) than the base-to-top height of the
feature (for example: supported tower) itself.

For example, the Height of Object of a two story building with a basement is three
stories while the Height of Object of a man doesn't change as a result of standing
in a trench whereas his Height Above Surface Level (based on the prevailing terrain
surface level) may be considered to be correspondingly reduced by the depth of the

Description:
|
In the case of multiple features that may be stacked on each other (for example: a
railway on a bridge, a superstructure on a building, or an aerial on a tower) the
highest elevation is that of the entire feature stack. For example, the highest elevation
of a church is that of its steeple and not that of the roof of the church itself.
The church itself may have a height above surface level that excludes the additional
height of the steeple superstructure located on the church roof.

A macrolanguage is a set of closely related language varieties (dialects) that generally

example, considering the place name 'San Jose, California' the language of the source
of this geographic name may be English if it is determined from a United States map,
regardless of the fact that this geographic name means 'St. Joseph, California' in
Spanish.

It is based on the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), a compact string of characters
for identifying an abstract or physical resource. The term 'Uniform Resource Name'
(URN) refers to the subset of URI that are required to remain globally unique and
persistent even when the resource ceases to exist or becomes unavailable. The URN
is drawn from one of a set of defined namespaces, each of which has its own set name
structure and assignment procedures.
