Path

A Path feature is a link set which represents a collection of PathLink features that share the same name (for example, Church Walk). A Path will reference the complete collection of RoadLink features irrespective of which authority boundary it falls within. A PathLink feature may be referenced by multiple Path features.

The context diagram shows how the Path feature has been inherited from INSPIRE and the attribution held on the Path.
