furrow
|
1
Plants are grown in raised beds or listed rows (in the case of row crops) with water
distributed throughout the field via ditches or pipes, and between the beds or rows
using furrows.
Where ditches are used, manually controlled siphon tubes may be used move water from
the main ditch to the furrow. When pipes are used, water flow can be controlled by
turning it on or off at the local source or by using automatic or manually controlled
gates to transfer it from one set of ditches to another. Unless the field is small
or very level, parts of it may suffer from water-logging while other parts may be
too dry. Depending on heat, wind, and soil permeability, much water may be lost before
it can benefit the plants.
|
overhead
|
2
Water is piped to one or more central locations within the field and distributed by
overhead high-pressure sprinklers or guns or by lower-pressure sprays.
A system utilizing sprinklers, sprays, or guns mounted overhead on permanently installed
risers is often referred to as a 'solid-set' irrigation system. Manually assembled
systems of piping that are broken down to permit tillage and harvesting are sometimes
called 'hand set' or 'hand move pipe'. Some sprinklers can also be hidden below ground
level, if aesthetics is a concern, and pop up in response to increased water pressure.
Sprinklers that spray in a fixed pattern are generally called sprays or spray heads.
Higher pressure sprinklers that rotate are called rotors and are driven by a ball
drive, gear drive, or impact mechanism. Rotors can be designed to rotate in a full
or partial circle. Guns are similar to rotors, except that they generally operate
at very high pressures. One drawback of overhead irrigation is that much water can
be lost because of high winds or evaporation, and irrigating the entire field uniformly
can be difficult or tedious if the system is not properly designed. Water remaining
on plants' leaves may promote fungal and other diseases.
|
centerPivot
|
3
A form of overhead irrigation consisting of several segments of pipe (usually galvanized
steel or aluminum) joined together and supported by trusses, mounted on wheeled towers
with sprinklers positioned along its length, the system moving in a circular pattern
and fed with water from the pivot point at the center of the arc.
Most center pivot systems now have drops hanging from a u-shaped pipe called a gooseneck
attached at the top of the pipe with sprinkler heads that are positioned a few feet
(at most) above the crop, thus limiting evaporative losses. Drops can also be used
with drag hoses or bubblers that deposit the water directly on the ground between
crops. The crops are planted in a circle to conform to the center pivot.
|
linearMove
|
4
A form of overhead irrigation similar to center pivot irrigation in which the equipment
is configured to move in a straight line, where the water is pulled from a central
ditch.

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

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.

GEM-zI007.WID-singleValue
|
Definition:
|
The dimension of a feature taken perpendicular to 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 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.

(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

A macrolanguage is a set of closely related language varieties (dialects) that generally
have a common linguistic identity and a common written form; this may occur when there
is a transitional socio-linguistic situation in which sub-communities of a single
language community are diverging. The language of the geographic name source should
be distinguished from the language of origin or etymology of a geographic name; for
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.

ISDES_2.LAN
|
Definition:
|
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO 639-3) three character code
that designates the language or macrolanguage of the source of a geographic name.
|
Description:
|
A macrolanguage is a set of closely related language varieties (dialects) that generally
have a common linguistic identity and a common written form; this may occur when there
is a transitional socio-linguistic situation in which sub-communities of a single
language community are diverging. The language of the geographic name source should
be distinguished from the language of origin or etymology of a geographic name; for
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.

An indication that a feature has more than one official, native script, geographic
name.
|
Description:
|
Multiple official names may exist when a feature passes through more than one country
and those multiple countries have different official names for that feature. Some
countries have more than one official language and therefore may have an official
name for a feature in each official language.

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.
