Attribute naming differences

Attribute naming differences between GML and GeoPackage formats for the two feature types in the product.

Attribute naming differences between GML and GeoPackage formats

The naming of attributes between GeoPackage and the Geography Markup Language (GML) file is very similar as GeoPackage files are not limited in the number of characters for an attribute name. Therefore, the tables included here map the GML attribute name to the attribute name in the GeoPackage files.

The GML contains an attribute which describes the geometry of the feature; this is not applicable for a GeoPackage file as they are separated by their geometry.

Please note that the use of an asterisk symbol (*) in the following tables indicates that a particular attribute is not mapped to GML.
