Abstract

This OGC® Encoding Standard defines GeoPackages for exchange and GeoPackage SQLite Extensions for direct use of vector geospatial features and / or tile matrix sets of earth images and raster maps at various scales. Direct use means the ability to access and update data in a "native" storage format without intermediate format translations in an environment (e.g. through an API) that guarantees data model and data set integrity and identical access and update results in response to identical requests from different client applications. GeoPackages are interoperable across all enterprise and personal computing environments, and are particularly useful on mobile devices like cell phones and tablets in communications environments with limited connectivity and bandwidth.

Table of Contents

Introduction

Mobile device users who require map/geospatial application services and operate in disconnected or limited network connectivity environments are challenged by limited storage capacity and the lack of open format geospatial data to support these applications. The current situation is that each map/geospatial application requires its own potentially proprietary geospatial data store. These separate application-specific data stores may contain the same geospatial data, wasting the limited storage available, and requiring custom applications for data translation, replication, and synchronization to enable different map/geospatial applications to share the same world view. In addition, many existing geospatial data stores are platform-specific, which means that users with different platforms must translate data to share it.

An open, standards-based, application-independent, platform-independent, portable, interoperable, self-describing, GeoPackage (GPKG) data container, API and manifest are needed to overcome these challenges and to effectively support multiple map/geospatial applications such as fixed product distribution, local data collection, and geospatially enabled analytics. This standard is intended to facilitate widespread adoption and use of GeoPackages by both COTS and open-source software applications on enterprise production platforms as well as mobile hand-held devices [B1] [B2], given that mobile hand held devices do not yet have the processing power or battery life to effectively tackle difficult geospatial product production and analysis tasks. An application that accesses a GPKG will make use of the GPKG capabilities it requires; few if any such applications will make use of all GPKG capabilities.

This OGC® Encoding Standard defines GeoPackages for exchange and GeoPackage SQLite Extensions for direct use of vector geospatial features and / or tile matrix sets of earth images and raster maps at various scales. Direct use means the ability to access and update data in a “native” format without intermediate format translations in an environment (e.g. through an API) that guarantees data model and data set integrity and identical access and update results in response to identical requests from different client applications.

A GeoPackage is a platform-independent SQLite [5] database file that contains GeoPackage data and metadata tables shown in GeoPackage Tables Overview below, with specified definitions, integrity assertions, format limitations and content constraints. The allowable content of a GeoPackage is entirely defined in this specification.

An Extended GeoPackage is a GeoPackage that contains any additional data elements (tables or columns) or SQL constructs (data types, functions, indexes, constraints or triggers) that are not specified in this encoding standard.

A GeoPackage MAY be “empty” (contain user data table(s) for vector features and/or tile matrix pyramids with no row record content) or contain one or many vector feature type records and /or one or many tile matrix pyramid tile images. GeoPackage metadata CAN describe GeoPackage data contents and identify external data synchronization sources and targets. A GeoPackage MAY contain spatial indexes on feature geometries and SQL triggers to maintain indexes and enforce content constraints.

A GeoPackage SQLite Configuration consists of the SQLite 3 software library and a set of compile- and runtime configurations options.

A GeoPackage SQLite Extension is a SQLite loadable extension that MAY provide SQL functions [12] to support spatial indexes and SQL triggers linked to a SQLite library with specified configuration requirements to provide SQL API [1] [2] [3] [4] access to a GeoPackage file. This standard does not address the issues listed in the [_potential_future_work] clause in Background and Context (Normative), which MAY be addressed in a subsequent version of this specification or by other specifications.

GeoPackage Tables
Figure 1. GeoPackage Tables Overview

1. Base

The required capabilities specified in this clause serve as the base for options specified in clause Options and extensions specified in clause Registered Extensions. All gpkg_* tables and views and all tiles user data tables specified in this standard SHALL have only the specified columns and table constraints. Any features user data tables MAY have columns in addition to those specified. All specified table and column name values SHALL be lowercase.

1.1. Core

The mandatory core capabilities defined in sub clauses and requirement statements of this clause SHALL be implemented by every GeoPackage and GeoPackage SQLite Configuration.

1.1.1. SQLite Container

The SQLite software library provides a self-contained, single-file, cross-platform, serverless, transactional, open source RDBMS container. The GeoPackage specification defines a SQL database schema designed for use with the SQLite software library. Using SQLite as the basis for GeoPackage simplifies production, distribution and use of GeoPackages and assists in guaranteeing the integrity of the data they contain.

“Self-contained” means that container software requires very minimal support from external libraries or from the operating system. “Single-file” means that a container not currently opened by any software application consists of a single file in a file system supported by a computing platform operating system. “Cross-platform” means that a container file MAY be created and loaded with data on one computing platform, and used and updated on another, even if they use different operating systems, file systems, and byte order (endian) conventions. “Serverless” means that the RDBMS container is implemented without any intermediary server process, and accessed directly by application software. “Transactional” means that RDBMS transactions guarantee that all changes to data in the container are Atomic, Consistent, Isolated, and Durable (ACID) despite program crashes, operating system crashes, and power failures.

Data
File Format

A GeoPackage SHALL be a SQLite [5] database file using version 3 of the SQLite file format [6] [7]. The first 16 bytes of a GeoPackage SHALL contain “SQLite format 3” [1] in ASCII [B4]. [2]

A GeoPackage SHALL contain 0x47503130 ("GP10" in ASCII) in the application id field of the SQLite database header to indicate a GeoPackage version 1.0 file. [3]

The maximum size of a GeoPackage file is about 140TB. In practice a lower size limit MAY be imposed by the filesystem to which the file is written. Many mobile devices require external memory cards to be formatted using the FAT32 file system which imposes a maximum size limit of 4GB.

File Extension Name

A GeoPackage SHALL have the file extension name “.gpkg”.

It is RECOMMENDED that Extended GeoPackages use the file extension “.gpkx”, but this is NOT a GeoPackage requirement.

File Contents

A GeoPackage SHALL only contain data elements, SQL constructs and GeoPackage extensions with the “gpkg” author name specified in this encoding standard.

In order to guarantee maximum interoperability between applications, GeoPackages SHALL NOT contain data elements (tables or columns), SQL constructs (data types, indexes, constraints or triggers) or extensions that are not specified in this encoding standard. SQLite databases that use constructs from the GeoPackage specification but extend that to contain any of these elements are referred to as Extended GeoPackages throughout this specification.

The columns of tables in a GeoPackage SHALL only be declared using one of the data types specified in table GeoPackage Data Types.

FK

The gpkg_contents table is intended to provide a list of all geospatial contents in a GeoPackage. The data_type specifies the type of content. The bounding box (min_x, min_y, max_x, max_y) provides an informative bounding box (not necessarily minimum bounding box) of the content. If the srs_id column value references a geographic coordinate reference system (CRS), then the min/max x/y values are in decimal degrees; otherwise, the srs_id references a projected CRS and the min/max x/y values are in the units specified by that CRS.

Table Data Values

The table_name column value in a gpkg_contents table row SHALL contain the name of a SQLite table or view.

Values of the gpkg_contents table last_change column SHALL be in ISO 8601 [29] format containing a complete date plus UTC hours, minutes, seconds and a decimal fraction of a second, with a ‘Z’ (‘zulu’) suffix indicating UTC. [6]

Values of the gpkg_contents table srs_id column SHALL reference values in the gpkg_spatial_ref_sys table srs_id column.

2. Options

The optional capabilities specified in this clause depend on the required capabilities specified in clause Base above. Each subclause of this clause defines an indivisible module of functionality that can be used in GeoPackages. These modules are referred to as options. GeoPackages MAY use one or more options defined in this section. GeoPackages MAY omit the tables for options that are not used. As a minimum, a GeoPackage SHALL contain one user data table as defined by the Features or Tiles options in clauses Features and Tiles respectively.

A GeoPackage SHALL contain features per clause Features and/or tiles per clause Tiles and row(s) in the gpkg_contents table with lowercase data_type column values of “features” and/or “tiles” describing the user data tables.

2.1. Features

2.1.1. Simple Features SQL Introduction

Vector feature data represents geolocated entities including conceptual ones such as districts, real world objects such as roads and rivers, and observations thereof. International specifications [9][10][11][12] have standardized practices for the storage, access and use of vector geospatial features and geometries via SQL in relational databases. The first component of the SQL schema for vector features in a GeoPackage is the gpkg_spatial_ref_sys table defined in clause Spatial Reference Systems above. Other components are defined below.

In a GeoPackage, “simple” features are geolocated using a linear geometry subset of the SQL/MM (ISO 13249-3) [12] geometry model shown in Core Geometry Model below.

Core geometry model
Figure 2. Core Geometry Model

The instantiable (not abstract) geometry types defined in this Standard are restricted to 0, 1 and 2-dimensional geometric objects that exist in 2, 3 or 4-dimensional coordinate space (R2, R3 or R4). Geometry values in R2 have points with coordinate values for x and y. Geometry values in R3 have points with coordinate values for x, y and z or for x, y and m. Geometry values in R4 have points with coordinate values for x, y, z and m. The interpretation of the coordinates is subject to the coordinate reference systems associated to the point. All coordinates within a geometry object should be in the same coordinate reference systems.

Geometries MAY include z coordinate values. The z coordinate value traditionally represents the third dimension (i.e. 3D). In a Geographic Information System (GIS) this may be height above or below sea level. For example: A map might have a point identifying the position of a mountain peak by its location on the earth, with the x and y coordinate values, and the height of the mountain, with the z coordinate value.

Geometries MAY include m coordinate values. The m coordinate value allows the application environment to associate some measure with the point values. For example: A stream network may be modeled as multilinestring value with the m coordinate values measuring the distance from the mouth of stream.

All geometry types described in this standard are defined so that instances of Geometry are topologically closed, i.e. all represented geometries include their boundary as point sets. This does not affect their representation, and open version of the same classes MAY be used in other circumstances, such as topological representations.

A brief description of each geometry type is provided below. A more detailed description can be found in ISO 13249-3 [12].

  • Geometry: the root of the geometry type hierarchy.

  • Point: a single location in space. Each point has an X and Y coordinate. A point MAY optionally also have a Z and/or an M value.

  • Curve: the base type for all 1-dimensional geometry types. A 1-dimensional geometry is a geometry that has a length, but no area. A curve is considered simple if it does not intersect itself (except at the start and end point). A curve is considered closed its start and end point are coincident. A simple, closed curve is called a ring.

  • LineString: A Curve that connects two or more points in space.

  • Surface: the base type for all 2-dimensional geometry types. A 2-dimensional geometry is a geometry that has an area.

  • CurvePolygon: A planar surface defined by an exterior ring and zero or more interior ring. Each ring is defined by a Curve instance.

  • Polygon: A restricted form of CurvePolygon where each ring is defined as a simple, closed LineString.

  • GeometryCollection: A collection of zero or more Geometry instances. [7]

  • MultiSurface: A restricted form of GeometryCollection where each Geometry in the collection must be of type Surface.

  • MultiPolygon: A restricted form of MultiSurface where each Surface in the collection must be of type Polygon.

  • MultiCurve: A restricted form of GeometryCollection where each Geometry in the collection must be of type Curve.

  • MultiLineString: A restricted form of MultiCurve where each Curve in the collection must be of type LineString.

  • MultiPoint: A restricted form of GeometryCollection where each Geometry in the collection must be of type Point.

Well-Known Binary as defined in ISO 13249-3 [12] OGC 06-103r4 [9] does not provide a standardized encoding for an empty point set (i.e., 'Point Empty' in Well-Known Text). In GeoPackages these points SHALL be encoded as a Point where each coordinate value is set to an IEEE-754 quiet NaN value. GeoPackages SHALL use big endian 0x7ff8000000000000 or little endian 0x000000000000f87f as the binary encoding of the NaN values.

When the WKBGeometry in a GeoPackageBinary is empty, either the envelope contents indicator code SHALL be 0 indicating no envelope, or the envelope SHALL have its values set to NaN as defined for an empty point.

2.1.4. SQL Geometry Types

A GeoPackage SHALL store feature table geometries with the basic simple feature geometry types (Geometry, Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, GeomCollection) in Geometry Types (Normative) Geometry Type Codes (Core) in the GeoPackageBinary geometry encoding format.

2.1.5. Geometry Columns

The gpkg_geometry_columns table or updateable view SHALL contain one row record for the geometry column in each vector feature data table (clause Vector Feature User Data Tables) in a GeoPackage.

Values of the gpkg_geometry_columns table_name column SHALL reference values in the gpkg_contents table_name column for rows with a data_type of 'features'.

The column_name column value in a gpkg_geometry_columns row SHALL be the name of a column in the table or view specified by the table_name column value for that row.

The geometry_type_name value in a gpkg_geometry_columns row SHALL be one of the uppercase geometry type names specified in Geometry Types (Normative).

The srs_id value in a gpkg_geometry_columns table row SHALL be an srs_id column value from the gpkg_spatial_ref_sys table.

The z value in a gpkg_geometry_columns table row SHALL be one of 0, 1, or 2.

The m value in a gpkg_geometry_columns table row SHALL be one of 0, 1, or 2.

2.1.6. Vector Feature User Data Tables

Data
Table Definition

The third component of the SQL schema for vector features in a GeoPackage described in clause Simple Features SQL Introduction above are tables that contain user data representing features. Feature attributes are columns in a feature table, including geometries. Features are rows in a feature table. [11]

A GeoPackage MAY contain tables or updateable views containing vector features. Every such feature table or view in a GeoPackage SHALL have a column with column type INTEGER and 'PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT' column constraints per EXAMPLE : Sample Feature Table or View Definition and sample_feature_table Table Definition SQL (Informative).

The integer primary key of a feature table allows features to be linked to row level metadata records in the gpkg_metadata table by rowid [B5] values in the gpkg_metadata_reference table as described in clause Metadata Reference Table below.

A feature table SHALL have only one geometry column.

Feature data models [B23] from non-GeoPackage implementations that have multiple geometry columns per feature table MAY be transformed into GeoPackage implementations with a separate feature table for each geometry type whose rows have matching integer primary key values that allow them to be joined in a view with the same column definitions as the non-GeoPackage feature data model with multiple geometry columns.

Req 30b: The declared SQL type of the geometry column in a vector feature user data table SHALL be the uppercase geometry type name from Annex E specified by the geometry_type_name column for that column_name and table_name in the gpkg_geometry_columns table.

Table Data Values

A feature geometry is stored in a geometry column specified by the lowercase geometry_column value for the feature table in the gpkg_geometry_columns table defined in clause Geometry Columns above.

The geometry type of a feature geometry column specified in the gpkg_geometry_columns table geometry_type_name column is a name from Geometry Types (Normative).

Feature table geometry columns SHALL contain geometries of the type or assignable for the type specified for the column by the gpkg_geometry_columns table geometry_type_name uppercase column value [12].

Geometry subtypes are assignable as defined in Geometry Types (Normative) and shown in part in Core Geometry Model. For example, if the geometry_type_name value in the gpkg_geometry_columns table is for a geometry type like POINT that has no subtypes, then the feature table geometry column MAY only contain geometries of that type. If the geometry type_name value in the gpkg_geometry_columns table is for a geometry type like GEOMCOLLECTION that has subtypes, then the feature table geometry column MAY only contain geometries of that type or any of its direct or indirect subtypes. If the geometry type_name is GEOMETRY (the root of the geometry type hierarchy) then the feature table geometry column MAY contain geometries of any geometry type.

The presence or absence of optional elevation (Z) and/or measure (M) values in a geometry does not change its type or assignability. The unit of measure for optional elevation(Z) values is determined by the CRS of the geometry; it is as-defined by a 3D CRS, and undefined for a 2D CRS. The unit of measure for optional measure (M) values is determined by the CRS of the geometry.

The spatial reference system type of a feature geometry column specified by a gpkg_geometry_columns table srs_id column value is a code from the gpkg_spatial_ref_sys table srs_id column.

Feature table geometry columns SHALL contain geometries with the srs_id specified for the column by the gpkg_geometry_columns table srs_id column value.

2.2. Tiles

2.2.1. Tile Matrix Introduction

There are a wide variety of commercial and open source conventions for storing, indexing, accessing and describing tiles in tile pyramids. Unfortunately, no applicable existing consensus, national or international specifications have standardized practices in this domain. In addition, various image file formats have different representational capabilities, and include different self-descriptive metadata.

The tile store data / metadata model and convention described below support direct use of tiles in a GeoPackage in two ways. First, they specify how existing application MAY create SQL Views of the data /metadata model on top of existing application tables that that follow different interface conventions. Second, they include and expose enough metadata information at both the dataset and record level to allow applications that use GeoPackage data to discover its characteristics without having to parse all of the stored images. Applications that store GeoPackage tile data, which are presumed to have this information available, SHALL store sufficient metadata to enable its intended use.

The GeoPackage tile store data model MAY be implemented directly as SQL tables in a SQLite database for maximum performance, or as SQL views on top of tables in an existing SQLite tile store for maximum adaptability and loose coupling to enable widespread implementation.

A GeoPackage CAN store multiple raster and tile pyramid data sets in different tables or views in the same container. [13] “Tile pyramid” refers to the concept of pyramid structure of tiles of different spatial extent an resolution at different zoom levels, and the tile data itself. “Tile matrix” refers to rows and columns of tiles tha all have the same spatial extent and resolution at a particular zoom level. “Tile matrix set” refers to the definitio of a tile pyramid’s tiling structure.

The tables or views that implement the GeoPackage tile store data / metadata model are described and discussed individually in the following subsections.

2.2.2. Contents

Data
Contents Table – Tiles Row

The gpkg_contents table SHALL contain a row with a data_type column value of “tiles” for each tile pyramid user data table or view.

2.2.3. Zoom Levels

In a GeoPackage, zoom levels are integers in sequence from 0 to n that identify tile matrix layers in a tile matrix set that contain tiles of decreasing spatial extent and finer spatial resolution. Adjacent zoom levels immediately preceed or follow each other and differ by a value of 1. Pixel sizes are real numbers in the terrain units of the spatial reference system of a tile image specifying the dimensions of the real world area represented by one pixel. Pixel size MAY vary by a constant factor or by different factors or intervals between some or all adjacent zoom levels in a tile matrix set. In the commonly used "zoom times two" convention, pixel sizes vary by a factor of 2 between all adjacent zoom levels, as shown in the example in Tiles Zoom Times Two Example (Informative). Other "zoom other intervals" conventions use different factors or irregular intervals with pixel sizes chosen for intuitive cartographic representation of raster data, or to coincide with the original pixel size of commonly used global image products. See WMTS [16] Annex E for additional examples of both conventions.

Data
Zoom Times Two

In a GeoPackage that contains a tile pyramid user data table that contains tile data, by default [14], zoom level pixel sizes for that table SHALL vary by a factor of 2 between adjacent zoom levels in the tile matrix metadata table.

2.2.4. Tile Encoding PNG

Data
MIME Type PNG

In a GeoPackage that contains a tile pyramid user data table that contains tile data that is not MIME type image/jpeg [17][18][19], by default SHALL store that tile data in MIME type image/png [20][21]. [15]

2.2.5. Tile Encoding JPEG

Data
MIME Type JPEG

In a GeoPackage that contains a tile pyramid user data table that contains tile data that is not MIME type image/png [20][21], by default SHALL store that tile data in MIME type image/jpeg [17][18][19]. [16]

2.2.6. Tile Matrix Set

Data
Table Definition

A GeoPackage that contains a tile pyramid user data table SHALL contain gpkg_tile_matrix_set table or view per Table Definition, Tile Matrix Set Table or View Definition and gpkg_tile_matrix_set Table Creation SQL.

The gpkg_tile_matrix_set table or updateable view defines the minimum bounding box (min_x, min_y, max_x, max_y) and spatial reference system (srs_id) for all content in a tile pyramid user data table.

Table Data Values

The minimum bounding box defined in the gpkg_tile_matrix_set table or view for a tile pyramid user data table SHALL be exact so that the bounding box coordinates for individual tiles in a tile pyramid MAY be calculated based on the column values for the user data table in the gpkg_tile_matrix table or view. For example, because GeoPackages use the upper left tile origin convention defined in clause Table Data Values below, the gpkg_tile_matrix_set (min_x, max_y) ordinate is the upper-left corner of tile (0,0) for all zoom levels in a table_name tile pyramid user data table.

Values of the gpkg_tile_matrix_set table_name column SHALL reference values in th gpkg_contents table_name column for rows with a data type of "tiles".

The gpkg_tile_matrix_set table or view SHALL contain one row record for each tile pyramid user data table.

Values of the gpkg_tile_matrix_set srs_id column SHALL reference values in the gpkg_spatial_ref_sys srs_id column.

The gpkg_tile_matrix table or updateable view documents the structure of the tile matrix at each zoom level in each tiles table. It allows GeoPackages to contain rectangular as well as square tiles (e.g. for better representation of polar regions). It allows tile pyramids with zoom levels that differ in resolution by factors of 2, irregular intervals, or regular intervals other than factors of 2.

Table Data Values

Values of the gpkg_tile_matrix table_name column SHALL reference values in the gpkg_contents table_name column for rows with a data_type of “tiles”.

The gpkg_tile_matrix table or view SHALL contain one row record for each zoom level that contains one or more tiles in each tile pyramid user data table or view.

The gpkg_tile_matrix table or view MAY contain row records for zoom levels in a tile pyramid user data table that do not contain tiles.

GeoPackages follow the most frequently used conventions of a tile origin at the upper left and a zoom-out-level of 0 for the smallest map scale “whole world” zoom level view [17], as specified by WMTS [16]. The tile coordinate (0,0) always refers to the tile in the upper left corner of the tile matrix at any zoom level, regardless of the actual availability of that tile.

The zoom_level column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL not be negative.

The matrix_width column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL be greater than 0.

The matrix_height column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL be greater than 0.

The tile_width column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL be greater than 0.

The tile_height column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL be greater than 0.

The pixel_x_size column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL be greater than 0.

The pixel_y_size column value in a gpkg_tile_matrix table row SHALL be greater than 0.

The pixel_x_size and pixel_y_size column values for zoom_level column values in a gpkg_tile_matrix table sorted in ascending order SHALL be sorted in descending order.

Tiles MAY or MAY NOT be provided for level 0 or any other particular zoom level. [18] This means that a tile matrix set can be sparse, i.e. not contain a tile for any particular position at a certain tile zoom level. [19] This does not affect the informative spatial extent stated by the min/max x/y columns values in the gpkg_contents record for the same table_name, the exact spatial extent stated by the min/max x/y columns values in the gpkg_tile_matrix_set record for the same table name, or the tile matrix width and height at that level. [20]

2.2.8. Tile Pyramid User Data Tables

Data
Table Definition

Each tile matrix set in a GeoPackage SHALL be stored in a different tile pyramid user data table or updateable view with a unique name that SHALL have a column named "id" with column type INTEGER and 'PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT' column constraints per Clause 2.2.8.1.1 Table Definition, Tiles Table or View Definition and EXAMPLE: tiles table Create Table SQL (Informative) EXAMPLE: tiles table Insert Statement (Informative) .

For each distinct table_name from the gpkg_tile_matrix (tm) table, the tile pyramid (tp) user data table zoom_level column value in a GeoPackage SHALL be in the range min(tm.zoom_level) ⇐ tp.zoom_level ⇐ max(tm.zoom_level).

For each distinct table_name from the gpkg_tile_matrix (tm) table, the tile pyramid (tp) user data table tile_column column value in a GeoPackage SHALL be in the range 0 ⇐ tp.tile_column ⇐ tm.matrix_width – 1 where the tm and tp zoom_level column values are equal.

For each distinct table_name from the gpkg_tile_matrix (tm) table, the tile pyramid (tp) user data table tile_row column value in a GeoPackage SHALL be in the range 0 ⇐ tp.tile_row ⇐ tm.matrix_height – 1 where the tm and tp zoom_level column values are equal.

All tiles at a particular zoom level have the same pixel_x_size and pixel_y_size values specified in the gpkg_tile_matrix row record for that tiles table and zoom level. [22]

2.3. Schema

2.3.1. Schema Introduction

The schema option provides a means to describe the columns of tables in a GeoPackage with more detail than can be captured by the SQL table definition directly. The information provided by this option can be used by applications to, for instance, present data contained in a GeoPackage in a more user-friendly fashion or implement data validation logic.

2.3.2. Data Columns

Data

The gpkg_data_columns data CAN be used to provide more specific column data types and value ranges and application specific structural and semantic information to enable more informative user menu displays and more effective user decisions on the suitability of GeoPackage contents for specific purposes.

Table Data Values

Values of the gpkg_data_columns table table_name column value SHALL reference values in the gpkg_contents table_name column.

The column_name column value in a gpkg_data_columns table row SHALL contain the name of a column in the SQLite table or view identified by the table_name column value.

The case sensitive value column contains an enumerated legal value for constraint_type "enum", a pattern match string for constraint_type "glob", or NULL for constraint_type "range". The set of value column values in rows of constraint_type "enum" with the same constraint_name contains all possible enumerated values for the constraint name. The min and max column values specify the minim and maximum valid values for constraint_type "range", or are NULL for constraint_type "enum" or "glob". The minIsInclusive and maxIsInclusive column values contain 1 if the min and max values are inclusive, 0 if they are exclusive, or are NULL for constraint_type "enum" or "glob". These restrictions MAY be enforced by SQL triggers or by code in applications that update GeoPackage data values.

2.4. Metadata

2.4.1. Introduction

Two tables in a GeoPackage provide a means of storing metadata in MIME [21] encodings that are defined in accordance with any authoritative metadata specifications, and relating it to the features, rasters, and tiles data in a GeoPackage. These tables are intended to provide the support necessary to implement the hierarchical metadata model defined in ISO 19115 [28], Annex B B.5.25 MD_ScopeCode, Hierarchical Metadata Example (Informative) and Raster or Tile Metadata Example (Informative), so that as GeoPackage data is captured and updated, the most local and specific detailed metadata changes associated with the new or modified data MAY be captured separately, and referenced to existing global and general metadata.

The gpkg_metadata table that contains metadata is described in clause Metadata Table, and the gpkg_metadata_reference table that relates gpkg_metadata to GeoPackage data is described in clause Metadata Reference Table. There is no GeoPackage requirement that such metadata be provided or that defined metadata be structured in a hierarchical fashion [25] with more than one level, only that if it is, these tables SHALL be used. Such metadata [26] and data that relates it to GeoPackage contents SHALL NOT be stored in other tables.

2.4.2. Metadata Table

Data
Table Definition

A GeoPackage MAY contain a table named gpkg_metadata. If present it SHALL be defined per clause 2.4.2.1.1 Table Definition, Metadata Table Definition and gpkg_metadata Table Definition SQL.

The first component of GeoPackage metadata is the gpkg_metadata table that MAY contain metadata in MIME [21] encodings structured in accordance with any authoritative metadata specification, such as ISO 19115 [28], ISO 19115-2 [B6], ISO 19139 [B7], Dublin Core [B8], CSDGM [B10], DDMS [B12], NMF/NMIS [B13], etc. The GeoPackage interpretation of what constitutes “metadata” is a broad one that includes UML models [B14] encoded in XMI [B15], GML Application Schemas [30], ISO 19110 feature catalogues [B18], OWL [B20] and SKOS [B21] taxonomies, etc.

Table Definition

A GeoPackage that contains a gpkg_metadata table SHALL contain a gpkg_metadata_reference table per clause 2.4.3.1.1 Table Definition, Metadata Reference Table Definition (Table Name: gpkg_metadata_reference) and gpkg_metadata_reference Table Definition SQL.

The second component of GeoPackage metadata is the gpkg_metadata_reference table that links metadata in the gpkg_metadata table to data in the feature, and tiles tables defined in clauses 2.1.6 and 2.2.7. The gpkg_metadata_reference table is not required to contain any rows.

2.5. Extension Mechanism

2.5.1. Introduction

A GeoPackage extension is a set of one or more requirements clauses that are documented by filling out the GeoPackage Extension Template in GeoPackage Extension Template (Normative). A GeoPackage Extension either profiles / extends existing requirements clauses in the geopackage specification or adds new requirements clauses. Existing requirement clause extension examples include additional geometry types, additional SQL geometry functions, and additional tile image formats. New requirement clause extension examples include spatial indexes, triggers, additional tables, other BLOB column encodings, and other SQL functions.

GeoPackage extensions are identified by a name of the form <author>_<extension name> where <author> indicates the person or organization that developed and maintains the extension. The author value “gpkg” is reserved for GeoPackage extensions that are developed and maintained by OGC and used in Geopackages. Implementers use their own author names to register other extensions[36] used in Extended GeoPackages.

2.5.2. Extensions

Data
Table Definition

A GeoPackage MAY contain a table or updateable view named gpkg_extensions. If present this table SHALL be defined per clause 2.5.2.1.1 Table Definition, GeoPackage Extensions Table or View Definition (Table or View Name: gpkg_extensions) and gpkg_extensions Table Definition SQL.

The gpkg_extensions table or updateable view in a GeoPackage is used to indicate that a particular extension applies to a GeoPackage, a table in a GeoPackage or a column of a table in a GeoPackage. An application that accesses a GeoPackage can query the gpkg_extensions table instead of the contents of all the user data tables to determine if it has the required capabilitiesto read or write to tables with extensions, and to “fail fast” and return an error message if it does not.

Table 17. GeoPackage Extensions Table or View Definition (Table or View Name: gpkg_extensions)

no

scope

TEXT

Indicates scope of extension effects on readers / writers: 'read-write' or 'write-only' in lowercase.

no

Table Data Values

Every extension of a GeoPackage SHALL be registered in a corresponding row in the gpkg_extensions table. The absence of a gpkg_extensions table or the absence of rows in gpkg_extnsions table SHALL both indicate the absence of extensions to a GeoPackage.

Values of the gpkg_extensions table_name column SHALL reference values in the gpkg_contents table_name column or be NULL. They SHALL NOT be NULL for rows where the column_name value is not NULL.

The column_name column value in a gpkg_extensions row SHALL be the name of a column in the table specified by the table_name column value for that row, or be NULL.

Each extension_name column value in a gpkg_extensions row SHALL be a unique case sensitive value of the form <author>_<extension_name> where <author> indicates the person or organization that developed and maintains the extension. The valid character set for <author> SHALL be [a-zA-Z0-9]. The valid character set for <extension_name> SHALL be [a-zA-Z0-9_]. An extension_name for the “gpkg” author name SHALL be one of those defined in this encoding standard or in an OGC Best Practices Document that extends it.

Complete examples of how to fill out the GeoPackage Extension Template in GeoPackage Extension Template (Normative) are provided by Annex L through Annex P. The definition column value in a gpkg_extensions row for those extensions SHALL contain the Annex name as a reference.

Partial examples of how to fill out the GeoPackage Extension Template in GeoPackage Extension Template (Normative) are provided by the templates in GeoPackage Geometry Types Extension Template (Normative) and User-Defined Geometry Types Encoding Extension Template (Normative). Extension definitions created using those template and other extension definitions MAY be provided in the definition column, preferably as ASCII text, or as a reference such as a URI [23] or email address whereby the definition may be obtained.

The definition column value in a gpkg_extensions row SHALL contain or reference the text that results from documenting an extension by filling out the GeoPackage Extension Template in GeoPackage Extension Template (Normative).

Some extensions do not impose any additional requirements on software that accesses a GeoPackage in a read-only fashion. An example of this is an extension that defines an SQL trigger that uses a non-standard SQL function defined in a GeoPackage SQLite Extension. Triggers are only invoked when data is written to the GeoPackage, so usage of this type of extension can be safely ignored for read-only access. This is indicated by a gpkg_extensions.scope column value of “write_only”.

The scope column value in a gpkg_extensions row SHALL be lowercase "read-write" for an extension that affects both readers and writers, or "write-only" for an extension that affects only writers.

The author value “gpkg” is reserved for GeoPackage extensions that are developed and maintained by OGC. Requirements for extension names for the “gpkg” author name are defined in the clauses listed in 14 below. GeoPackage implementers use their own author names to register other extensions.

3. Registered Extensions

This clause specifies requirements for GeoPackage extensions. Definitions of those extensions in the form specified by the template in GeoPackage Extension Template (Normative) are provided in Annexes J through P.

3.1. Features

The extensions defined in the following sub clauses MAY be implemented in a GeoPackage that implements features per clause Features.

3.1.1. GeoPackage Geometry Types Extension

Data

This extension of clause SQL Geometry Types partially described in GeoPackage Geometry Types Extension Template (Normative) defines additional geometry types.

Extension Types

A GeoPackage MAY store feature table geometries with the extended non-linear geometry types (CircularString, CompoundCurve, CurvePolygon, MultiCurve, MultiSurface, Curve, Surface) in Geometry Types (Normative). If it does so, they SHALL be encoded in the GeoPackageBinary geometry format.

Extensions Types - Extensions Name

An extension name to specify a feature geometry extension type SHALL be defined for the “gpkg” author name using the “gpkg_geom_<gname>” template where <gname> is the uppercase name of the extension geometry type from Geometry Types (Normative) used in a GeoPackage.

Extensions Types - Extensions Row

A GeoPackage that contains a gpkg_geometry_columns table or updateable view with row records that specify extension geometry_type_name column values SHALL contain a gpkg_extensions table that contains row records with table_name and column_name values from the gpkg_geometry_columns row records that identify extension type uses, and extension_name column values for each of those geometry types constructed per clause 3.1.1.1.2.

Extensions Encoding - Extensions Name

An extension name to specify a feature geometry extension type encoded in the ExtendedGeoPackageBinary format SHALL be defined for an author name that is NOT “gpkg” using the “<author_name>_geom_<gname> template where <gname> is the uppercase name of an extension geometry type NOT listed in Geometry Types (Normative) used in a GeoPackage.

Extensions Encoding - Extensions Row

An Extended GeoPackage that contains a gpkg_geometry_columns table or updateable view with row records that specify extension geometry_type_name column values other than those specified in clauses SQL Geometry Types and 3.1.1 and listed in Geometry Types (Normative) SHALL contain a gpkg_extensions table that contains row records with table_name and column_name values from the gpkg_geometry_columns row records that identify extension type uses, and extension_name column values for each of those geometry type constructed per clause 3.1.2.1.2.

Geometry Columns Geometry Type Name

The geometry_type_name value in a gpkg_geometry_columns row SHALL be the [user_defined_geometry_ext_name_req] extension name in uppercase.

3.1.3. RTree Spatial Indexes

Data

This extension described in RTree Spatial Index Extension (Normative) adds a new capability for spatially indexing columns with geometries encoded per clause Geometry Encoding and User-Defined Geometry Types Extension.

Spatial Indexes Implementation

Spatial indexes provide a significant performance advantage for searches with basic envelope spatial criteria that return subsets of the rows in a feature table with a non-trivial number (thousands or more) of rows.[37]

A GeoPackage SHALL implement spatial indexes on feature table geometry columns as specified in clause 3.1.3.1.1 using the SQLite Virtual Table RTrees and triggers specified in RTree Spatial Index Extension (Normative).

Spatial Indexes - Extensions Name

The “gpkg_rtree_index” extension name SHALL be used as a gpkg_extensions table extension name column value to specify implementation of spatial indexes on a geometry column.

Spatial Indexes - Extensions Row

A GeoPackage that implements spatial indexes SHALL have a gpkg_extensions table that contains a row for each spatially indexed column with extension_name “gpkg_rtree_index”, the table_name of the table with a spatially indexed column, and the column_name of the spatially indexed column.

3.1.4. Geometry Type Triggers

Data

This extension described in Geometry Type Triggers Extension (Normative) adds a new geometry type triggers capability for columns with geometries encoded per clause Geometry Encoding and User-Defined Geometry Types Extension.

Geometry Type Triggers – Implementation

Geometry Type Triggers – Extensions Row

A GeoPackage that implements geometry type triggers on geometry columns SHALL contain a gpkg_extensions table that contains a row for each such geometry column with extension_name “gpkg_geometry_type_trigger”, table_name of the feature table with a geometry column, and column_name of the geometry column.

3.1.5. SRS_ID Triggers

Data

This extension described in Geometry SRS ID Triggers Extension (Normative) adds a new srs_id triggers capability for columns with geometries encoded per clause Geometry Encoding and User-Defined Geometry Types Extension.

SRS_ID Triggers – Implementation

A GeoPackage SHALL include the SQL insert and update triggers specified in Geometry SRS ID Triggers Extension (Normative) on every geometry column to enforce the srs_id values specified for those columns in the gpkg_geometry_columns table.

SRS_ID Triggers – Extensions Name

The “gpkg_srs_id_trigger” extension name SHALL be used as a gpkg_extensions table extension name column value to specify implementation of SRS_ID triggers specified in Geometry SRS ID Triggers Extension (Normative).

SRS_ID Triggers – Extensions Row

A GeoPackage that implements srs_id triggers on feature table geometry columns SHALL contain a gpkg_extensions table that contains a row for each geometry column with extension_name “gpkg_srs_id_trigger”, table_name of the feature table with a geometry column, and column_name of the geometry column.

3.2. Tiles

The extensions defined in the following sub clauses MAY be implemented in a GeoPackage that implements tiles per clause Tiles.

3.2.1. Zoom Levels

Data

This extension of clause Zoom Levels described in Zoom Other Intervals Extension (Normative) allows zoom level intervals other than a factor of two.

Zoom Other Intervals

Tile pyramid user data tables MAY have pixel sizes that vary by irregular intervals or by regular intervals other than a factor of two (the default) between adjacent zoom levels.

Zoom Other – Extensions Name

The “gpkg_zoom_other” extension name SHALL be used as a gpkg_extensions table extension name column value to specify implementation of other zoom intervals on a tile pyramid user data table as specified in Zoom Other Intervals Extension (Normative).

Zoom Other – Extensions Row

A GeoPackage that implements other zoom intervals SHALL have a gpkg_extensions table that contains a row for each tile pyramid user data table with other zoom intervals with extension_name “gpkg_zoom_other”, the table_name of the table with other zoom intervals, and the “tile_data” column_name.

3.2.2. Tile Encoding WEBP

Data

This extension of clauses Tile Encoding PNG and Tile Encoding JPEG described in Tiles Encoding WebP Extension (Normative) allows encoding of tile images in WebP format.

WEBP MIME Type

A GeoPackage that contains a tile pyramid user data table that contains tile data MAY store tile_data in MIME type image/x-webp [22].

WEBP — Extensions Name

The "gpkg_webp" extension name SHALL be used as a gpkg_extensions table extension name column value to specify storage of tile pyramid images in WEBP format as specified in Tiles Encoding WebP Extension (Normative).

WEBP — Extensions Row

A GeoPackage that contains tile pyramid user data tables with tile_data columns that contain images in WEBP format SHALL contain a gpkg_extensions table that contains row records with table_name values for each such table, “tile_data” column_name values and extension_name column values of “gpkg_webp”.

4. Security Considerations

Security considerations for implementations utilizing GeoPackages are in the domain of the implementing application, deployment platform, operating system and networking environment. The GeoPackage specification does not place any constraints on application, platform, operating system level or network security.

Annex B: Background and Context (Normative)

B.1. Background

An open standard non-proprietary platform-independent GeoPackage container for distribution and direct use of all kinds of geospatial data will increase the cross-platform interoperability of geospatial applications and web services. Standard APIs for access and management of GeoPackage data will provide consistent query and update results across such applications and services. Increased interoperability and result consistency will enlarge the potential market for such applications and services, particularly in resource-constrained mobile computing environments like cell phones and tablets. GeoPackages will become the standard containers for "MyGeoData" that are used as a transfer format by users and Geospatial Web Services and a storage format on personal and enterprise devices.

This OGC® GeoPackage Encoding Standard defines a GeoPackage as a self-contained, single-file, cross-platform, serverless, transactional, open source SQLite data container with table definitions, relational integrity constraints, an SQL API exposed via a "C" CLI and JDBC, and manifest tables that together act as an exchange and direct-use format for multiple types of geospatial data including vector features, features with raster attributes and tile matrix pyramids, especially on mobile / hand held devices in disconnected or limited network connectivity environments.

Table formats, definitions of geometry types and metadata tables, relational integrity constraints, and SQL API are interdependent specification facets of the SF-SQL [9][10][11] and SQL-MM (Spatial) [12] standards that serve as normative references for the vector feature portion of this specification.

This specification attempts to support and use relevant raster types, storage table definitions, and metadata from widely adopted implementations and existing standards such as WMTS [16] and ISO metadata [28], to integrate use of rasters as attributes of geospatial features, and to define relational integrity constraints and an SQL API thereon to provide a raster analogy to the SF-SQL and SF-MM data access and data quality assurance capabilities.

Conformance classes for this specification are classified as core (mandatory) and extension (optional). The simple core of an Empty GeoPackage contains two SQL tables.

Future versions of this specification willmay include requirements for elevation data and routes. Future enhancements to this specification, a future GeoPackage Web Service specification, and modifications to existing OGC Web Service (OWS) specifications to use GeoPackages as exchange formats willmay allow OWS to support provisioning of GeoPackages throughout an enterprise or information community.

B.2. Document terms and definitions

This document uses the standard terms defined in Subclause 5.3 of [OGC 06-121], which is based on the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. Rules for the structure and drafting of International Standards. In particular, the word "shall" (not "must") is the verb form used to indicate a requirement to be strictly followed to conform to this standard.

For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.

Empty GeoPackage

A GeoPackage that contains a gpkg_spatial_ref_sys table, a gpkg_contents table with row record(s) with data_type column values of "features" or "tiles", and corresponding features tables per clause Features and/or tiles tables per clause Tiles where the user data tables per clauses 2.1.6. and 2.2.8 exist but contain no rows.

Extended GeoPackage

A GeoPackage that contains any additional data elements (tables or columns) or SQL constructs (data types, indexes, constraints or triggers) that are not specified in this encoding standard.

geolocate

identify a real-world geographic location

GeoPackage file

a platform-independent SQLite database file that contains GeoPackage data and metadata tables with specified definitions, integrity assertions, format limitations and content constraints.

GeoPackage SQLite Configuration

consists of the SQLite 3 software library and a set of compile- and runtime configurations options.

GeoPackage SQLite Extension

a SQLite loadable extension that MAY provide SQL functions to support spatial indexes and SQL triggers linked to a SQLite library with specified configuration requirements to provide SQL API access to a GeoPackage.

georectified

raster whose pixels have been regularly spaced in a geographic (i.e., latitude / longitude) or projected map coordinate system using ground control points so that any pixel can be geolocated given its grid coordinate and the grid origin, cell spacing, and orientation.

orthorectified

georectified raster that has also been corrected to remove image perspective (camera angle tilt), camera and lens induced distortions, and terrain induced distortions using camera calibration parameters and DEM elevation data to accurately align with real world coordinates, have constant scale, and support direct measurement of distances, angles, and areas.

Valid GeoPackage

A GeoPackage that contains features per clause Features and/or tiles per clause Tiles and row(s) in the gpkg_contents table with data_type column values of "features" and/or "tiles" describing the user data tables.

B.7. Changes to the OGC® Abstract Specification

The OGC® Abstract Specification does not require changes to accommodate this OGC® standard.

B.8. Changes to OGC® Implementation Standards

None at present.

B.9. Potential Future Work (Informative)

  • MAY investigate GeoPackage implementation on SQLite version 4 [B25].

  • Future versions of this specification MAY include requirements for elevation data and routes.

  • Future enhancements to this specification, a future GeoPackage Web Service specification and modifications to existing OGC Web Service (OWS) specifications to use GeoPackages as exchange formats MAY allow OWS to support provisioning of GeoPackages throughout an enterprise.

  • Future versions of this specification MAY include additional raster / image formats, including fewer restrictions on the image/tiff format.

  • Future versions of this specification MAY include additional SQL API routines for interrogation and conversion of raster / image BLOBs.

  • Future versions of this specification and/or one for a GeoPackage Web Service MAY address utilities for importing and exporting vector, raster and tile data in various formats.

  • Future versions of this specification and/or one for a GeoPackage Web Service MAY address encryption of GeoPackages and/or individual tables or column values.

  • Future versions of this specification MAY add infrastructure to the metadata tables such as a temporal_columns table that refers to the time properties of data records.

  • MAY specify a streaming synchronization protocol for GeoPackage as part of a future GeoPackage Web Service specification, and/or a future version of the GeoPackage and/or Web Synchronization Service specification(s).

  • Future versions of this specification MAY address symbology and styling information.

  • Future version of this specification MAY include geographic / geodesic geometry types.

  • MAY create a GeoPackage Abstract Object Model to support data encodings other than SQL in a future version of this specification.

  • MAY add UTFGrid support in a future version of this specification

B.10. UML Notation

The diagrams that appear in this standard are presented using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) [B14] static structure diagrams. The UML notations used in this standard for RDBMS tables in a GeoPackage are described in UML Notation for RDBMS Tables below.

umlnotationforrdbmstables
Figure 3. UML Notation for RDBMS Tables

In this standard, the following two stereotypes of UML classes are used to represent RDBMS tables:

  1. <<table>> An instantiation of a UML class as an RDMBS table.

  2. <<column>> An instantiation of a UML attribute as an RDBMS table column.

In this standard, the following standard data types are used for RDBMS columns:

  1. NULL – The value is a NULL value.

  2. INTEGER – A signed integer, stored in 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 bytes depending on the magnitude of the value

  3. REAL – The value is a floating point value, stored as an 8-byte IEEE floating point number.

  4. TEXT – A sequence of characters, stored using the database encoding (UTF-8, UTF-16BE or UTF-16LE).

  5. BLOB – The value is a blob of data, stored exactly as it was input.

  6. NONE – The value is a Date / Time Timestamp

Annex G: Hierarchical Metadata Example (Informative)

The first example use case is from ISO19115 H.2. Suppose we have this metadata:

CREATE TABLE gpkg_metadata (
  id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
  md_scope TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'undefined',
  md_standard_uri TEXT NOT NULL,
  metadata TEXT NOT NULL
)
id md_scope md_standard_uri metadata 0

attributeType

http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd

attribute

and this reference table definition:

CREATE TABLE gpkg_metadata_reference (
  reference_scope TEXT NOT NULL,
  table_name TEXT,
  column_name TEXT,
  row_id_value INTEGER,
  timestamp TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ','now')),
  md_file_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
  md_parent_id INTEGER,
  CONSTRAINT crmr_mfi_fk FOREIGN KEY (md_file_id) REFERENCES gpkg_metadata(id),
  CONSTRAINT crmr_mpi_fk FOREIGN KEY (md_parent_id) REFERENCES gpkg_metadata(id)
)

H.2 1) Consider a geographic data provider generating vector mapping data for three Administrative areas(A, B and C). …​ The metadata could be carried exclusively at Dataset Series level.

Then we need a record for each layer table for the three admin areas, like this:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'table', /* reference type */
'roads', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
-1, /* row_id_value  */
(datetime('now')),
3,  /* md_file_id  */
0  /* md_parent_id  */
)

H.2 2) After some time alternate vector mapping of Administrative area A becomes available. The metadata would then be extended for Administrative area A, to describe the new quality date values. These values would supersede those given for the Dataset series, but only for Administrative area A. The metadata for B and C would remain unchanged. This new metadata would be recorded at Dataset level.

Then we need a record for each layer table in "A" like this:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'table', /* reference type */
'roads', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
-1, /* row_id_value  */
(datetime('now')),
 4,  /* md_file_id  */
3  /* md_parent_id  */
)

H.2 3) Eventually further data becomes available for Administrative area A, with a complete re-survey of the road network. Again this implies new metadata for the affected feature types. This metadata would be carried at Feature type level for Administrative area A. All other metadata relating to other feature types remains unaffected. Only the metadata for roads in Administrative area A is modified. This road metadata is recorded at Feature type level.

Then we need a record for each layer table for the roads network, like this:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'table', /* reference type */
'roads', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
-1, /* row_id_value  */
(datetime('now')),
5,  /* md_file_id  */
4  /* md_parent_id  */
)

H.2 4) An anomaly in the road survey is identified, in that all Overhead clearances for the Administrative area A have been surveyed to the nearest metre. These are re-surveyed to the nearest decimetre. This re-survey implies new metadata for the affected attribute type ‘Overhead Clearance’. All other metadata for Administrative area A remains unaffected. This ‘Overhead Clearance’ metadata is recorded at Attribute Type level.

Then we need a record for each layer table in the roads network with attribute type 'Overhead Clearance', like this;

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'column', /* reference type */
'roads', /* table name */
'overhead_clearance', /* column_name */
-1, /* row_id_value  */
(datetime('now')),
7,  /* md_file_id  */
4  /* md_parent_id  */
)

H.2 5) A new bridge is constructed in Administrative area A. This new data is reflected in the geographic data for Administrative area A, and new metadata is required to record this new feature. All other metadata for Administrative area A remains unaffected. This new feature metadata is recorded at Feature instance level.

Then we need a record for the bridge layer table row for the new bridge, like this:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row', /* reference type */
'bridge', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
987, /* row_id_value  */
(datetime('now')),
6,  /* md_file_id  */
4  /* md_parent_id  */
)

H.2 6) The overhead clearance attribute of the new bridge was wrongly recorded, and is modified. Again this new attribute requires new metadata to describe the modification. All other metadata for Administrative area A remains unaffected. This new attribute metadata is recorded at Attribute instance level.

Then we need a record for the clearance attribute value, like this:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row/col', /* reference type */
'bridge', /* table name */
'overhead_clearance', /* column_name */
987, /* row_id_value  */
(datetime('now')),
8,  /* md_file_id  */
4  /* md_parent_id  */
)

The second example use case is for a field data collection session. This use case demonstrates a mechanism to indicate which data in a GeoPackage that was originally loaded with data from one or more services has been collected or updated since the initial load, and therefore MAY need to be uploaded to update the original services (e.g. WFS, WCS, WMTS).

Suppose a user with a mobile handheld device goes out in the field and collects observations of a new "Point of Interest" (POI) feature type, and associated metadata about the field session, the new feature type, some POI instances and some of their attributes (e.g. spatial accuracy, attribute accuracy) that results in the following additional metadata:

id md_scope md_standard_uri metadata 1

(This example assumes that the field session data is still considered "raw" and won’t be considered a data set or part of a data series until it has been verified and cleaned, but if that is wrong then additional series and data set metadata could be added.)

Then we need a gpkg_metadata_reference record for the field session for the new POI table, whose md_parent_id is undefined:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'table', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
-1, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
1,  /* md_file_id  */
0  /* md_parent_id  */
)

Then we need a gpkg_metadata_reference record for the feature type for the new POI table, whose md_parent_id is that of the field session:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'table', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
-1, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
10,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

Then we need gpkg_metadata_reference records for the poi feature instance rows, whose md_parent_id is that of the field session:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
1, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
11,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
2, /* row_id_value  */
14,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'undefined', /* column_name */
3, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
17,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

And finally we need gpkg_metadata_reference records for the poi attribute instance metadata , whose md_parent_id is that of the field session:

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row/col', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'point', /* column_name */
1, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
12,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row/col', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'point', /* column_name */
2, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
15,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

INSERT INTO gpkg_metadata_reference VALUES (
'row/col', /* reference type */
'poi', /* table name */
'point', /* column_name */
3, /* row_id_value  */
(strftime(%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ,now)),
18,  /* md_file_id  */
1  /* md_parent_id  */
)

Annex L: RTree Spatial Index Extension (Normative)

Extension Title

Rtree Spatial Indexes

Introduction

The rtree index extension provides a means to encode an rtree index for geometry values in a GeoPackage. An RTree index provides a significant performance advantage for searches with basic envelope spatial criteria that return subsets of the rows in a feature table with a non-trivial number (thousands or more) of rows.

Extension Author

GeoPackage SWG, author_name gpkg.

Extension Name or Template

gpkg_rtree_index

Extension Type

New Requirement dependent on clauses Geometry Encoding and 3.1.2.

Applicability

This extension applies to any column specified in the gpkg_geometry_columns table.

Scope

Write-only, because it does not change the result of reads, although it may improve their performance.

Requirements

This extension uses the rtree implementation provided by the SQLite R*Tree Module extension documented at http://www.sqlite.org/rtree.html.

GeoPackage

The tables below contain SQL templates with variables. Replace the following template variables with the specified values to create the required SQL statements:
<t>: The name of the feature table containing the geometry column
<c>: The name of the geometry column in <t> that is being indexed
<i>: The name of the integer primary key column in <t> as specified in [requirement_feature_integer_pk]

Create Virtual Table

RTree spatial indexes on geometry columns SHALL be created using the SQLite Virtual Table RTree extension. An application that creates a spatial index SHALL create it using the following SQL statement template:

CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE rtree_<t>_<c> USING rtree(id, minx, maxx, miny, maxy)

where <t> and <c> are replaced with the names of the feature table and geometry column being indexed. The rtree function id parameter becomes the virtual table 64-bit signed integer primary key id column, and the min/max x/y parameters are min- and max-value pairs (stored as 32-bit floating point numbers) for each dimension that become the virtual table data columns that are populated to create the spatial rtree index.

Load Spatial Index Values

The indexes provided by the SQLite Virtual Table RTree extension are not automatic indices. This means the index data structure needs to be manually populated, updated and queried. Each newly created spatial index SHALL be populated using the following SQL statement

INSERT OR REPLACE INTO rtree_<t>_<c>
  SELECT <i>, st_minx(<c>), st_maxx(<c>), st_miny(<c>), st_maxy(<c>) FROM <t>;

where <t> and <c> are replaced with the names of the feature table and geometry column being indexed and <i> is replaced with the name of the feature table integer primary key column.

Define Triggers to Maintain Spatial Index Values

For each spatial index in a GeoPackage, corresponding insert, update and delete triggers that update the spatial index SHALL be present on the indexed geometry column. These spatial index triggers SHALL be defined as follows:

/* Conditions: Insertion of non-empty geometry
   Actions   : Insert record into rtree */
CREATE TRIGGER rtree_<t>_<c>_insert AFTER INSERT ON <t>
  WHEN (new.<c> NOT NULL AND NOT ST_IsEmpty(NEW.<c>))
BEGIN
  INSERT OR REPLACE INTO rtree_<t>_<c> VALUES (
    NEW.<i>,
    ST_MinX(NEW.<c>), ST_MaxX(NEW.<c>),
    ST_MinY(NEW.<c>), ST_MaxY(NEW.<c>)
  );
END;

/* Conditions: Update of geometry column to non-empty geometry
               No row ID change
   Actions   : Update record in rtree */
CREATE TRIGGER rtree_<t>_<c>_update1 AFTER UPDATE OF <c> ON <t>
  WHEN OLD.<i> = NEW.<i> AND
       (NEW.<c> NOTNULL AND NOT ST_IsEmpty(NEW.<c>))
BEGIN
  INSERT OR REPLACE INTO rtree_<t>_<c> VALUES (
    NEW.<i>,
    ST_MinX(NEW.<c>), ST_MaxX(NEW.<c>),
    ST_MinY(NEW.<c>), ST_MaxY(NEW.<c>)
  );
END;

/* Conditions: Update of geometry column to empty geometry
               No row ID change
   Actions   : Remove record from rtree */
CREATE TRIGGER rtree_<t>_<c>_update2 AFTER UPDATE OF <c> ON <t>
  WHEN OLD.<i> = NEW.<i> AND
       (NEW.<c> ISNULL OR ST_IsEmpty(NEW.<c>))
BEGIN
  DELETE FROM rtree_<t>_<c> WHERE id = OLD.<i>;
END;

/* Conditions: Update of any column
               Row ID change
               Non-empty geometry
   Actions   : Remove record from rtree for old <i>
               Insert record into rtree for new <i> */
CREATE TRIGGER rtree_<t>_<c>_update3 AFTER UPDATE OF <c> ON <t>
  WHEN OLD.<i> != NEW.<i> AND
       (NEW.<c> NOTNULL AND NOT ST_IsEmpty(NEW.<c>))
BEGIN
  DELETE FROM rtree_<t>_<c> WHERE id = OLD.<i>;
  INSERT OR REPLACE INTO rtree_<t>_<c> VALUES (
    NEW.<i>,
    ST_MinX(NEW.<c>), ST_MaxX(NEW.<c>),
    ST_MinY(NEW.<c>), ST_MaxY(NEW.<c>)
  );
END;

/* Conditions: Update of any column
               Row ID change
               Empty geometry
   Actions   : Remove record from rtree for old and new <i> */
CREATE TRIGGER rtree_<t>_<c>_update4 AFTER UPDATE ON <t>
  WHEN OLD.<i> != NEW.<i> AND
       (NEW.<c> ISNULL OR ST_IsEmpty(NEW.<c>))
BEGIN
  DELETE FROM rtree_<t>_<c> WHERE id IN (OLD.<i>, NEW.<i>);
END;

/* Conditions: Row deleted
   Actions   : Remove record from rtree for old <i> */
CREATE TRIGGER rtree_<t>_<c>_delete AFTER DELETE ON <t>
  WHEN old.<c> NOT NULL
BEGIN
  DELETE FROM rtree_<t>_<c> WHERE id = OLD.<i>;
END;

where <t> and <c> are replaced with the names of the feature table and geometry column being indexed and <i> is replaced with the name of the feature table integer primary key column.

Annex O: Zoom Other Intervals Extension (Normative)

Extension Title

Zoom Other Intervals

Introduction

In a GeoPackage, zoom levels are integers in sequence from 0 to n that identify tile matrix layers in a tile matrix set that contain tiles of decreasing spatial extent and finer spatial resolution. Adjacent zoom levels immediately precede or follow each other and differ by a value of 1. Pixel sizes are real numbers in the terrain units of the spatial reference system of a tile image specifying the dimensions of the real world area represented by one pixel. Pixel sizes MAY vary by a constant factor or by different factors or intervals between some or all adjacent zoom levels in a tile matrix set. In the commonly used "zoom times two" convention, pixel sizes vary by a factor of 2 between all adjacent zoom levels, as shown in the example in Tiles Zoom Times Two Example (Informative).

This extension enables use of "zoom other intervals" conventions with different factors or irregular intervals with pixel sizes chosen for intuitive cartographic representation of raster data, or to coincide with the original pixel size of commonly used global image products. See WMTS [16] Annex E for additional examples of both conventions.

Annex Q: Normative References (Normative)

The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of OGC 12-128. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this part of OGC 12-128 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies.

Annex R: Bibliography (Informative)


1. SQLite version 4 (reference B25), which will be an alternative to version 3, not a replacement thereof, was not available when this specification was written. See Future Work clause in Annex B.
2. SQLite is in the public domain (see http://www.sqlite.org/copyright.html)
3. With SQLite versions 3.7.17 and later this value MAY be set with the "PRAGMA application_id=1196437808;" SQL statement, where 1196437808 is the 32-bit integer value of 0x47503130. With earlier versions of SQLite the application id can be set by writing the byte sequence 0x47, 0x50, 0x31, 0x30 at offset 68 in the SQLite database file (see http://www.sqlite.org/fileformat2.html#database_header for details).
4. The SQLite PRAGMA integrity_check SQL command does a full database scan that can take a long time to complete on a large GeoPackage file.
5. New applications should use the latest available SQLite version software [8]
6. The following statement selects an ISO 8601timestamp value using the SQLite strftime function: SELECT (strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ','now')).
7. GeometryCollection is a generic term for the ST_GeomCollection type defined in [12], which uses it for the definition of Well Known Text (WKT) and Well Known Binary (WKB) encodings. The SQL type name GEOMCOLLECTION defined in [10] and used in Clause 1.1.2.1.1 and Annex E below refers to the SQL BLOB encoding of a GeometryCollection.
8. OGC WKB simple feature geometry types specified in <del> [13] </del><ins> [9] </ins> are a subset of the ISO WKB geometry types specified in <del> [16] </del><ins> [12] </ins>
9. WKB geometry types are are restricted to 0, 1 and 2-dimensional geometric objects that exist in 2, 3 or 4-dimensional coordinate space; they are not geographic or geodesic geometry types.
10. The axis order in WKB is always (x,y{,z}{,m}) where x is easting or longitude, y is northing or latitude, z is optional elevation and m is optional measure.
11. A GeoPackage is not required to contain any feature data tables. Feature data tables in a GeoPackage MAY be empty.
12. GeoPackage applications MAY use SQL triggers or tests in application code to meet this requirement
13. Images of multiple MIME types MAY be stored in given table. For example, in a tiles table, image/png format tiles COULD be used for transparency where there is no data on the tile edges, and image/jpeg format tiles COULD be used for storage efficiency where there is image data for all pixels. Images of multiple bit depths of the same MIME type MAY also be stored in a given table, for example image/png tiles in both 8 and 24 bit depths.
14. See clause 3.2.1.1.1 for use of other zoom levels as a registered extensions.
15. See Clause 3.2.2 regarding use of the WebP alternative tile MIME type as a registered extension.
16. See Clause 3.2.2 regarding use of the WebP alternative tile MIME type as a registered extension.
17. GeoPackage applications MAY query the gpkg_tile_matrix table or the tile pyramid user data table to determine the minimum and maximum zoom levels for a given tile pyramid table.
18. GeoPackage applications MAY query a tile pyramid user data table to determine which tiles are available at each zoom level.
19. GeoPackage applications that insert, update, or delete tile pyramid user data table tiles row records are responsible for maintaining the corresponding descriptive contents of the gpkg_tile_matrix_metadata table.
20. The `gpkg_tile_matrix_set` table contains coordinates that define a bounding box as the exact stated spatial extent for all tiles in a tile (matrix set) table. If the geographic extent of the image data contained in tiles at a particular zoom level is within but not equal to this bounding box, then the non-image area of matrix edge tiles must be padded with no-data values, preferably transparent ones.
21. A GeoPackage is not required to contain any tile pyramid user data tables. Tile pyramid user data tables in a GeoPackage MAY be empty.
22. The zoom_level / tile_column / tile_row unique key is automatically indexed, and allows tiles to be selected and accessed by "z, x, y", a common convention used by some implementations. This table / view definition MAY also allow tiles to be selected based on a spatially indexed bounding box in a separate metadata table.
23. A GeoPackage is not required to contain a gpkg_data_columns table. The gpkg_data_columns table in a GeoPackage MAY be empty.
24. GeoPackages MAY contain MIME types other than the raster image types specified in clauses 2.2.4, 2.2.5, and 3.2.2 as feature attributes, but they are not required to do so.
25. Informative examples of hierarchical metadata are provided in Hierarchical Metadata Example (Informative)
26. An informative example of raster image metadata is provided in [tiles_example_appendix]
27. For example, for ISO 19139 metadata the URI value should be the metadata schema namespace http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd
28. The scope codes in Metadata Scopes include a very wide set of descriptive information types as “metadata” to describe data.
29. ISO 19139 format metadata (B32) is recommended for general-purpose description of geospatial data at the series and dataset metadata scopes.
30. The “catalog” md_scope MAY be used for Feature Catalog (B40) information stored as XML metadata that is linked to features stored in a GeoPackage.
31. The “schema” md_scope MAY be used for Application Schema (B37)(B38)(B39)(B44) information stored as XML metadata that is linked to features stored in a GeoPackage.
32. The “taxonomy” md_scope MAY be used for taxonomy or knowledge system (B41)(B42) “linked data” information stored as XML metadata that is linked to features stored in a GeoPackage.
33. In SQLite, the rowid value is always equal to the value of a single-column primary key on an integer column [B30] and is not changed by a database reorganization performed by the VACUUM SQL command.
34. Such a metadata hierarchy MAY have only one level of defined metadata
35. The following statement selects an ISO 8601timestamp value using the SQLite strftime function: SELECT (strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ','now')).
36. See Requirement 82.
37. If an application process will make many updates, it is often faster to drop the indexes, do the updates, and then recreate the indexes.
