Abstract no
Documentation OrientableSurface consists of a surface and an orientation. If the orientation is "+", then the OrientableSurface is identical to the baseSurface. If the orientation is "-", then the OrientableSurface is a reference to a Surface with an up-normal that reverses the direction for this OrientableSurface, the sense of "the top of the surface".

gml:id="[0..1]"
gid="string [0..1]

'This attribute is included for backward compatibility with GML 2 and is deprecated with GML 3. This identifer is superceded by \"gml:id\" inherited from AbstractGMLType. The attribute \"gid\" should not be used anymore and may be deleted in future versions of GML without further notice.'

"

srsName="anyURI [0..1]

'In general this reference points to a CRS instance of gml:CoordinateReferenceSystemType (see coordinateReferenceSystems.xsd). For well known references it is not required that the CRS description exists at the location the URI points to. If no srsName attribute is given, the CRS must be specified as part of the larger context this geometry element is part of, e.g. a geometric element like point, curve, etc. It is expected that this attribute will be specified at the direct position level only in rare cases.'

"

srsDimension="positiveInteger [0..1]

'The \"srsDimension\" is the length of coordinate sequence (the number of entries in the list). This dimension is specified by the coordinate reference system. When the srsName attribute is omitted, this attribute shall be omitted.'

"

axisLabels=" gml:NCNameList [0..1]

'Ordered list of labels for all the axes of this CRS. The gml:axisAbbrev value should be used for these axis labels, after spaces and forbiddden characters are removed. When the srsName attribute is included, this attribute is optional. When the srsName attribute is omitted, this attribute shall also be omitted.'

"

uomLabels=" gml:NCNameList [0..1]

'Ordered list of unit of measure (uom) labels for all the axes of this CRS. The value of the string in the gml:catalogSymbol should be used for this uom labels, after spaces and forbiddden characters are removed. When the axisLabels attribute is included, this attribute shall also be included. When the axisLabels attribute is omitted, this attribute shall also be omitted.'

"

orientation=" gml:SignType [0..1]

'If the orientation is \"+\", then the OrientableSurface is identical to the baseSurface. If the orientation is \"-\", then the OrientableSurface is a reference to a Surface with an up-normal that reverses the direction for this OrientableSurface, the sense of \"the top of the surface\". \"+\" is the default value.'

'Multiple names may be provided. These will often be distinguished by being assigned by different authorities, as indicated by the value of the codeSpace attribute. In an instance document there will usually only be one name per authority.'

<gml:baseSurface> ... </gml:baseSurface> [1]

'References or contains the base surface (positive orientation).'
