gml:AbstractContinuousCoverage 

A continuous coverage as defined in ISO 19123 is a coverage that can return different values for the same feature attribute at different direct positions within a single spatiotemporal object in its spatiotemporal domain. The base type for continuous coverages is AbstractContinuousCoverageType.
The coverageFunction element describes the mapping function. 
The abstract element gml:AbstractContinuousCoverage serves as the head of a substitution group which may contain any continuous coverage whose type is derived from gml:AbstractContinuousCoverageType.

Attributes

QName Type Fixed Default Use Inheritable Annotation
gml:id ID required 
The attribute gml:id supports provision of a handle for the XML element representing a GML Object. Its use is mandatory for all GML objects. It is of XML type ID, so is constrained to be unique in the XML document within which it occurs.
