description                                       ndt_comment

                                          A remark about the use of the coordinate
                                          transformation.

                                          The identifier of the coordinate transformation.

ref_coordinate_transform_constraint               ref_coordinate_transform_constraint

                                          A constraint which defines the types of coordinate
                                          systems that must be used as the basis of and
                                          result of the application of a coordinate
                                          transformation. This constraint is implemented
                                          by an applied coordinate transformation. 

coordinate_transformation_method          M       coordinate_transformation_method

                                          This is the method used to define the coordinate
                                          transformation. The method describes the parameters
                                          to be used and the manner in which they are used.

                                          These are the areas of the surface of the Earth
                                          that are defined as appropriate to use this coordinate
                                          transformation. 

applied_coordinate_transformation         V       set[0 .. N] of (applied_coordinate_transformation)

                                          This describes the instances where this coordinate
                                          transformation was used to transform one coordinate
                                          system into another. 

coordinate_transformation_value           V       set[0 .. N] of (coordinate_transformation_value)

                                          These are the values of the coordinate transformation
                                          parameters that are defined for the coordinate
                                          transformation method that defines this coordinate
                                          transformation.
