General - All Scales

No feature type field exists for this annotation feature class. The feature type has only been included throughout the specification documentation for ease of reference.

Only Annotation associated with, or derived from, entities in feature classes grouped within the Bathymetry feature dataset should exist within the BathymetryAnno feature class.

Wherever possible annotation should be stored using the subclasses indicated under AnnotationClassID. Annotation stored as inline text should be kept to a minimum.

Type for large polygons and long linear features may be held in an annotation feature for each word to allow for spacing and differences in orientation, see Section 2 chapter 4.

Annotation should not contain any HTML tags within the blob element, nor should it contain any special characters.

Editing and placement of Annotation should be conducted in the appropriate Lambert Conic Conformal Projection ( with two standard parallels and a central meridian per each chart's requirements) to ensure the spatial position of type on the map face can be correctly represented.

Annotation should only occur where the associated feature either has a sufficient dimension size or Upperscale value to be shown at 1:1 000 000 scale or a smaller scale/larger extent (eg 1:2 500 000, 1:10 000 000)

Geodatabase Rules

General - All Scales

One isobath is to be shown at each isobath interval elevation.

Isobaths will be captured at 200m, 1000m, 2000m, 3000m, 4000m, 5000m and 6000m.

All isobaths will be symbolised for 1:2 500 000 products.

Only Isobaths of the values of 200m, 2000m, 4000m, 6000m will be symbolised for 1:5 000 000 products.

Isobaths coincident with the shoreline will not be symbolised.

Inter-Feature Relationship Rules - Internal to Associated Dataset

General - All Scales

Isobaths of different elevation must not touch each other. No isobath can cross itself or another contour.

No gaps should appear in isobaths.

Inter-Feature Relationship Rules - External to Associated Dataset

General - All Scales

Shoreline, Junctions & other features forming the coastline will be cloned as 0 (zero) elevation isobath.

Isobath 2_5MILs must overlap;
Sea 2_5MIL, Lake (which are applicable for upperscale of 1:2 500 000 or smaller scale/larger area) or Watercourse Areas (which are applicable for upperscale of 1:2 500 000 or smaller scale/larger area)
